15、ieved Idea 2 was right.How did he finally prove it?Do you think John Snow would have solved this problem with-out the map?Give a reason.Two diseases,which are similar today,are SARS and AIDS because they are both very serious,have an unknown cause and public health care to solve them.John Snow final
16、ly proved his idea because he found an outbreak that was clearly related to cholera,collected information and was able to tie cases outside the area to the polluted water.Keys1.2.No.The map helped John Snow organise his ideas.He was able to identify those households that had had many deaths and chec
