Typhoid Merry. A record holder for the largest number of people killed accidentally.

Merry Mallon is a woman who killed people without knowing it. The fact is that she worked for rich families and big companies with a cook. Out of 47 people, three died. Medicine then was ill. The first case was in 1900. People began to fall ill with typhoid fever. Every time she moved from one family to another the foci of the disease broke out. She tried to care for the sick, but made them worse.
After only 7 years, in 1907, they discovered that she was "a healthy carrier of typhoid fever." Her mother was ill with this disease during pregnancy.
She became famous mainly for refusing to recognize herself as a patient and refusal in the food industry.
The state forcibly sent her to quarantine twice. The second to life!
Merry Mullon died on November 11, 1938. At the age of 69.

Threat: Check in hospitals regularly. Wash your hands before eating!))))
