In 1900 Singapore, medical treatment for illnesses was influenced by a mix of traditional practices and emerging Western medicine. Many people relied on traditional healers, herbal remedies, and practices rooted in Chinese or Malay medicine. Meanwhile, Western medical practices were gaining popularity, with hospitals and clinics being established, though access was often limited to the affluent. Public health initiatives began to emerge, focusing on sanitation and disease prevention, particularly in response to outbreaks like cholera and smallpox.
