This thesis focuses on the history of the Chapel Street TB Clinic and Administration Centre in Cape Town from 1941 to 1964. The author set out to evaluate the Cape Town City Council's attempts to control the TB epidemic, through the lens of the Chapel Street TB Clinic, in order to provide a local perspective on the history of TB in South Africa. A number of questions informed the direction of this study. Firstly, what initiated and shaped the response of the Cape Town City Council's Health Department to TB? Secondly, what were the underlying assumptions and attitudes of the City's public health administrators and medical officers to a TB epidemic that predominantly affected blacks? Lastly, why did the City's TB campaign take the form that it did, with the establishment of a medically focussed anti-TB scheme guided by the concept of the "direct attack" on TB. 2014-09-29T07:26:40Z 2014-09-29T07:26:40Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7718 eng application/pdf Department of Historical Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
