In times of coronavirus, see images that reveal how people avoided illness in the past

Many Brazilians are concerned about the outbreak of coronavirus in China. That's because, even though the Asian country is far from us, there are 6 suspected cases in Brazil at the moment. It is true that this number is not enough to alarm the population of our country, but even so, some preventive measures do not harm anyone.

If, even today, some viruses scare the population of a country (with enough technology to minimize their damage to the maximum), in the past the scenario was much worse. We are going to show images that reveal how precarious the methods of prevention and treatment of some diseases were. On the other hand, some of them are still used today.
