1 oct 1918 año - Influenza pandemic exposes Māori living conditions
Descripción:
The Māori death rate during the 1918-1919 influenza pandemic was seven times that of the general populace. This brought a wave of officials into the mostly rural Māori kāinga (villages), who noted what they saw as ‘shocking’ living conditions (Wanhalla 2006). “Houses”, Wanhalla (2006, 102) explains, “were repeatedly described as ‘hovels’ and communities as ‘slums’”.
