Take some quinine…with a side of green eggs and ham

On August 21, 2012, in history, malaria, by Karen Grepin

While Dr. Seuss may not have been a medical doctor, he did seem to have some interest in public health. The NPR’s Health Blog yesterday featured this health education poster illustrated by none other than Dr. Seuss while he was serving in World War II. The protagonist in his illustrations is a little mosquito named Ann (short for anopheles).

More great illustrations from the good doctor can also be found on the Contagion blog here.
