Disease outbreak in Savannah, Georgia, United States
The 1876 yellow fever epidemic killed 1,066 people in Savannah, Georgia, United States. The outbreak began in July 1876, with its first victim―and believed source of the infection―being J. W. Schull, a 27-year-old sailor. In the six-week period following his infection, around 5,000 (18%) of the approximately 28,000 residents of Savannah had fled the city to escape the disease.
