With the population increasing in the cities the living conditions got worse. The cities became even more unhygienic and disease-ridden which caused the death of many of those living in those areas, especially at a young age. (Doc. 8) Since there was no efficient sanitation systems or public health services that informed the low-working class that populated the cities how to take care of themselves and how hygiene attributed to contracting diseases. Edward Chadwick was a social reformer that pointed out the unfortunate circumstances that the people lived in, with an unsanitary water supply, no education on public health and how the dangerous working conditions didn’t even pay enough to sustain oneself. He realized that new policies needed to be set in order to help with the conditions set forth by the influx of immigrants into urban areas. (Doc.5)
