NETZAHUALCOYOTZI MENDEZ, MARCIANO. Dead People and Survivors of the Typhus Epidemic of 1813 in the Parish of San Pablo Apetatitlan, Tlaxcala. Front. hist. [online]. 2018, vol.23, n.2, pp.184-217. ISSN 2027-4688. https://doi.org/10.22380/20274688.451.
In March-September 1813 the typhus epidemic crossed the parish jurisdiction of San Pablo Apetatitlan, a dangerous disease that caused the deaths of more than two hundred people of the Spanish, mestizo and indigenous ethnic groups. Although the figure seems insignificant, in the context of the magnitude of mortality it reveals its relevance and transcendence. To measure the social maladjustment, the geographic spaces affected by the malignant germ are identified and interrelated with the totals of deaths and survivors within the nuclear and extended families. This close look reveals the extensive and intensive mortality and its association with the probable use of preventive strategies that at some point regulated the advance of the epidemic.
