Spinoer said: "Maintaining health is the responsibility of being a human being." Gorky also said: "Health is as good as gold." Health is the prerequisite for life protection and the basic condition for longevity for us humans. .

Paying attention to personal hygiene is the basic condition for people to stay healthy. But in the history of our human development, there was a woman who did not pay attention to personal hygiene and worked as a cook with germs, causing the infection of 3,000 people, bringing many disasters to people, and being isolated on an island for the rest of her life. Do you know who she is? Typhoid Mary, a "legendary woman".

The protagonist of today’s story is a woman named Typhoid Mary. This woman's life is full of legends and incredible things. Mary, an Irishman, immigrated to the United States with her parents when she was fifteen. She is a very cute little girl with big and lovable eyes. In the beginning, Mary started working as a maid in a wealthy family in order to make a living.

By chance, Mary discovered that she was talented in cooking, so she quit her job as a maid. Instead, she went to study everywhere, and finally succeeded in changing her profession to become a chef. From then on, becoming a great chef has always been Mary's dream, and she has been working hard for it.

If this child can live such an ordinary and busy life, then she will definitely be a happy person. But Mary, who was destined to be extraordinary, actually killed 7 people and infected 52 people with the virus because of her personal hygiene habits, completely ruining her life.

Mary, who turned to be a chef, is doing well in her career because of her talent and hard work, but she has a bad habit: cooking without washing her hands after going to the toilet. At that time, 37-year-old Mary was invited by a banker in New York to prepare delicious food for their family during their vacation. This was originally a happy thing, but unexpectedly it turned into a storm in just one month.

Just after Mary cooked for their family for a month, 6 of the 11 members of the banker's family contracted typhoid fever without knowing the circumstances. In that era when medical conditions were underdeveloped, typhoid fever had an extremely high mortality rate.

When problems arise, everyone is confused. Typhoid fever mainly occurs in poor gathering places with dirty and poor sanitary conditions. Why did this happen to the banker's family on vacation? Where did these germs come from? Where does it come from? Just when everyone was puzzled, the medical experts invited by the banker noticed Mary almost instantly. Typhoid Mary: Carrier of the virus.

Through a simple understanding, the doctor learned during the influenza investigation that 7 of the 8 households where Mary worked previously were infected with typhoid fever, and 24 of them had typhoid fever. Symptoms of infection in infected persons. Therefore, doctors suspected that Mary was actually a healthy carrier of the disease. The so-called healthy germ carrier means that the germs can reach a state of coexistence with Mary in her body.

In this state, Mary's seemingly healthy state is no different from that of ordinary people, and she will not show any symptoms, but she can infect other people just like the infected person. So the doctor asked Mary to leave her stool sample for testing, but Mary refused.

Mary thought that she was obviously a normal and healthy person, and the doctor's request violated her privacy. In the end, the doctor himself did not expect that just because of this miss, it almost led to a big mistake, which brought a huge disaster to the whole of Europe. It was in this year that a disease broke out in New York, and this disease was typhoid fever.

In that era when medical and health conditions were underdeveloped, this outbreak of typhoid fever was highly contagious and very rapid. Soon, the number of people suffering from typhoid fever in New York alone reached more than 3,000 . Just when everyone was at a loss to find the source of the outbreak, the doctor who had treated the banker's family immediately stood up and explained his suspicions about Mary to the Ministry of Health.

Later, in order to control the continued spread of the disease in New York, after obtaining permission from the Ministry of Health, the doctor and some police officers found Mary again. This time, under Mary's strong non-cooperation, the doctor used strong methods to obtain the samples needed for the test from Mary.

After careful testing and comparison, the final test result in Mary’s stool sample was: Mary’s stool was positive for Salmonella typhi. In the end, Mary was confirmed as the first "asymptomatic infected person" in human history. Mary was lonely and miserable in her later years.

We can only say that fate seems to have played a joke on Mary. When she was young, she gave her beauty, smart eyes, and endearing sex appeal. But after the age of 33, or perhaps earlier, she was given a body that was different from others. We can get the phenomenon of asymptomatic infections as a carrier of the germ.

After Mary was diagnosed, a future full of darkness awaited her. In the days that followed, Mary became a person that everyone feared. No one wanted to live with Mary anymore, and no one wanted to eat the food Mary cooked. However, these were only the beginning of Mary's tragic life.

In the end, with the help of the government, Mary was taken to an isolated island for isolation.

During the nearly two years of quarantine, Mary was like a child who had been completely abandoned by life. No one was willing to tell her how terrible and sad it was to be a carrier of germs. Although there were doctors who hoped to save Mary and change her unique system through treatment.

However, when the treatment was always ineffective, everyone gave up on Mary. At that time, Mary seemed to have been completely abandoned by her health, and nothing could change her unique physical condition.

Later, under the influence of human rights, the new health committee decided to lift Mary's isolation on the island. But the committee asked Mary to always pay attention to personal hygiene, maintain good hygiene habits, and not to have contact with others. However, Mary, who was released from isolation, did not keep her agreement with the health committee. She returned to her old job and started working as a chef, and in the end she inadvertently infected many people.

This incident aroused public outrage and panic, so many media began to rush to report on Mary. Mary finally returned to the isolated island and spent her life in isolation. On the isolated island, she spent twenty-eight years of isolation alone.

Mary's story makes people sigh. Some people say that she is also an innocent person, because Mary eventually died of the virus "infected" in her body. Some people say she is a pest because she has infected countless people by herself.

Of course, right and wrong at this time are no longer so important. Because things have long since become history. Nowadays, it is enough for people to remember the lessons of history, have good living habits and hygiene habits, and stay healthy.
