What were some diseases that the chumash caught?

The Chumash people, like many Indigenous populations, were vulnerable to diseases introduced by European colonizers. Smallpox, measles, and influenza were among the most devastating, leading to significant population declines. Additionally, syphilis and tuberculosis spread through contact with Europeans, further impacting their communities. These diseases often had severe consequences, as the Chumash had no prior exposure or immunity to them.
