infectious diseases
a. dietary illnesses: illnesses resulting from malnutrition such as

VE

i. such diseases were introduced to America by European
settlers
1) Aboriginals died at high rates due to lack of
previous exposure and natural immunity; lack of
immunity probably due to low degree of genetic
variation
2) exposure to infectious diseases resulted in famine,
ST
social unrest, and population depletion in
aboriginal communities
th
b. 19 century: infectious diseases were still the greatest threat to
early settlers and new diseases were emerging (e.g.,
UV
tuberculosis)
i. Smallpox epidemic in Montreal led to the formation of a
board of health in Quebec
ii.Tuberculosis was the greatest cause of death in Canada in
1867; death rate declined sharply towards the end of the
century with the introduction of vaccines
IA
iii. cause of decline in death rates for all infectious diseases
can be attributed to preventive measures including:
1) improved personal hygiene
2) better nutrition resulting in greater resistance to
_A
disease
3) public health innovation (e.g., water purification and
sewage treatment facilities)
4) increased personal concern about health and
following advice of health reformers
PP
5) appointment of medical office to oversee health in
Aboriginal communities
c. 20th century: death rate due to infectious disease declined and
average life expectancy increased
i. increase in life expectancy at birth from 59 years to 80
RO
years for men and 61 years to 84 years for women
1) life expectancy varies according to region and
ethnicity; lower for some Aboriginal groups
ii. chronic disease leading cause of health problems and half
of all deaths in developed countries
1) definition = degenerative illnesses that develop or
VE
persist over long period of time
2) examples = heart disease, cancer, stroke
3) reasons = increase in industrialization increases
stress and exposure to harmful chemicals; longer
life span places people at higher risk for chronic
