When they were confined to Bosque Redondo there was a measles epidemic that killed about 1/3 the population. There were more epidemic in the 1890s. The Navajo contacted the Spanish in the 1500s and all the peoples of the Americas had huge losses in population at that time due to small pox, measles, flu, typhus, whooping cough and many others. We don't have records of those deaths for the Navajo. They continued to have very high rates of TB into the 20th century. 10% of the Navajo enlisted men in WWII had to be sent home with TB.
However the Navajo have fully recovered and increased from those losses and today there are more Navajo than it is thought there ever have been, the tribal membership is over 300,000.
