In the 1910s an American pharmaceutical firm developed this “mail-order kit” to deliver the rabies vaccine to doctors and their patients. (Rabies is unusual in that patients usually receive the vaccine after they have been potentially exposed to the virus). In the early 1900s, patients sometimes needed to travel long distances in order to obtain this multi-week, life-saving treatment. (See the multiple syringes in the kit? The full treatment required *21 doses* administered over as many days). This vaccine kit is a reminder that even the best medicine is of little value if it’s not available and affordable. What will curators collect this year to remind future generations of what daily life was like in 2020? Find out today at 4pm ET during Curating Crises—a #BehindTheScenes, virtual program. Attendees will have an opportunity to meet our curators, ask questions, and learn how they decide what to include in the museum’s collection.
