Kholera: "I'm afraid that everyone will die in St. Petersburg." Sherich D.Yu.

The Coronavirus epidemic is not the first epidemic in the history of St. Petersburg. Once upon a time, the northern capital of Russia was regularly visited by Cholera, the “Asian guest”, and the number of victims exceeded tens of thousands. This book is about how Petersburg lived in cholera, why cholera riots arose and why the Bolsheviks turned out to be more successful fighters with deadly infection than officials of the tsarist time.
