Scarlet fever had a devastating impact on Aboriginal populations, particularly in Australia, during the 19th century. The disease, introduced by European settlers, contributed to high mortality rates among Indigenous communities, who had little to no immunity to it. This led to significant population declines and disrupted traditional social structures and cultural practices. Additionally, the outbreak of scarlet fever, along with other diseases, exacerbated the already profound effects of colonization on Aboriginal peoples.
