    Spanish Flu in Sorocaba and the case of the Santa Rosalia factory, 1918: local history contributions to the study of epidemics in Brazil
    (2017) DALL'AVA, Joao Paulo; MOTA, Andre
    An investigation is presented of the tensions that emerged during the Spanish flu epidemic in the city of Sorocaba, Brazil, between October and December 1918. It draws on previously unused primary sources, namely the narratives contained in the local press, taking the Santa Rosalia factory as a case study, particularly its owner's refusal to maintain the work stoppage at the height of the epidemic, even when requested to by the municipal authority. This research contributes to the study of epidemics in Brazil's inland municipalities, emphasizing how local history can contribute to investigations of the history of disease in the country.
