Abstract

In the struggle to reduce infectious disease in Tatarstan from 1917 to 1994, five major stages can be distinguished. Stage I (1917-1923). The very difficult sanitary and epidemiological legacy inherited from tsarist Russia was further aggravated in 19118-1920. as a result of civil war, intervention, economic ruin and famine. During these years, the epidemic situation as a whole worsened, especially in connection with an unprecedented rise in the incidence of typhus. Thus, in 1920, compared with 1918, the incidence of typhus increased 54 times, typhoid fever - 1.6 times, smallpox - 2 times. In 1921, the incidence of cholera was 390.0 per 100,000 population. The fight against these terrible diseases had to be carried out in the most difficult conditions: there were not enough doctors, paramedical workers, there were no hospitals, medicines - hunger raged!
