Joseph James Kinyoun
Author: Joseph K. Houts, Jr.
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476682909
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
In March 1900, Dr. Joseph James Kinyoun, a surgeon with the Marine Hospital Service and the founder of the Hygienic Laboratory, which became the National Institutes of Health, discovered bubonic plague in San Francisco. His finding led to an immediate outcry from the governor, local and state politicians, and the city's commercial interests. In the hyper-sensationalized journalism of San Francisco's newspapers, Kinyoun was ridiculed, leading to death threats and a $50,000 bounty on his head. Eventually, California's quarantine caused an enormous uproar. By the time a special federal commission produced a report (initially withheld from the public, leading to charges of a coverup) that vindicated Kinyoun, a deal had been brokered wherein the pioneering doctor was removed from his post. This book tells a timely story about yellow journalism, coverup, corruption, the struggle between science and politics, and the consequences of blind denial of the truth.

Book Description
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Supervising Surgeon-General of the Marine-Hospital Service of the United States: For the Fiscal Year 1875 The lease of the marine hospital at Mobile, which was made at the close of the late war, was, by direction of the Hon. Secretary of the Treasury, terminated on the first of September, 187 5, and the hospital is now conducted by an officer of the Service. The building is the oldest one now in use, it having been occupied since 1843. With some minor repairs, together with the construction of new water-tanks and water-closets, and the introduction of gas into the building, it may be made to fairly serve the demands of the service, which at Mobile are not large, and at no time cause the crowding of wards.
