Tuberculosis, or consumption, as they called it back then was eradicated by modern sewage systems, modern landfills, etc. Most other disease's of this era were eradicated by modern medicine over time. The down side to this is we as human being's seem to have forgotten the lesson's we have learned, and these diseases still to this day pop up in underdeveloped countries.
