In 1875, the most common causes of death were Infectious Diseases, with illnesses such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, and smallpox being particularly prevalent. Poor sanitation, lack of medical knowledge, and limited access to healthcare contributed significantly to high mortality rates. Additionally, conditions like cholera and typhoid fever were also major contributors to death in urban areas. Overall, the absence of vaccines and antibiotics made infectious diseases the leading cause of death during that time.
