The History of Milwaukee Socialists and Public Health

  • Summary

  • On this episode of The La Follette Line, we dive into the Milwaukee socialist government's response to the 1918 influenza epidemic. We examine how health department officials worked alongside the Milwaukee Common Council to disseminate public health information across the city. We discuss the diverse coalition of healthcare workers and community stakeholders who helped to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
