Yellow Fever

Visit the Jeanerette Museum Board for a history talk on the once-dreaded mosquito-borne virus, yellow fever. This dangerous illness, once relatively common in part of the United States including Louisiana, was a serious public health problem for over a century, from 1796 to 1905. The talk focuses specifically on the disease's effects on Iberia Parish.
