Thus, he needed more supporting proof.5)Because cholera was the most deadly disease of its day.5.keys: 1. air2. food or water3. marked4. died5.water pump6. had not7. moving away from Broad Street8. cholera germs9. handle.6.keys: 1—5: DCBEA7.keys:1)John Snow finally proved his idea because he found an outbreak that was clearly related to cholera, collected information and was able to tie cases outside the area to the polluted water.2)No. The map helped John Snow organize his ideas. He was able to identify those households that had had many deaths and check their water-drinking habits. He identified those houses that had had no deaths and surveyed their drinking habits. The evidence clearly pointed to the polluted water being the cause.3)SARS and Covid-19 because they are both deadly and fatally infectious, have an unknown cause and need serious public health care to solve them urgently.8.
