EDITORS COMMENTS
Pneumonia Strikes: Be Prepared, Consult Your Physician - A Warning from the Past This evocative poster, dating back to 1936 or 1937, depicts a man-eating shark with a pilot fish swimming alongside, symbolizing the progression of pneumonia following a common cold. The caption, "Pneumonia Strikes: Be Prepared, Consult Your Physician," serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers lurking beyond a seemingly innocuous cold. The image of a shark, a fearsome predator, represents pneumonia, an often severe and potentially life-threatening complication of the common cold. The pilot fish, a small, harmless companion fish, symbolizes the common cold. The shark's jaws are wide open, ready to swallow its unsuspecting prey, highlighting the sudden and unexpected nature of pneumonia. The poster was produced during the era of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), a New Deal agency designed to provide employment and relief during the Great Depression. The poster's bold design and powerful message served to raise awareness and educate the public about the importance of seeking medical attention for respiratory infections. Today, we have advanced medical treatments and preventative measures to combat both the common cold and pneumonia. However, this poster serves as a reminder of the importance of taking even the smallest of health concerns seriously and consulting a physician for proper diagnosis and treatment. So, if you're feeling under the weather, don't hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider. Your health is worth the investment.
