Abstract

The paper is devoted to the question of how the press reacted in the 19th century to the spread of epidemics, in this case, especially the cholera epidemic. Using the example of Catholic newspaper, as one of the important church periodicals published in Hungary since the middle of the 19th century, we present contemporary opinions on the origin, spread, examples of treatment and prevention of this disease. As it was recommended especially to priests and teachers. Those, especially in less developed areas where medical care was absent, often had to help broad sections of the rural population in the fight against disease with advice and practical activities.
