Abstract
“The measles had not prevailed on the Faroes since 1781; they broke out early in April, 1846. … of the 7,782 inhabitants, about 6,000 were taken with measles … 225 persons in all died … of the many old people still living on the Faroes who had had the measles in 1781, not one … was attacked the second time.” [P. L. Panum, Observations Made during the Epidemic of Measles on the Faroe Islands in the Year 1846]
