Was typhus in London

Yes, typhus outbreaks occurred in London, particularly during the 19th century. The disease was often associated with poor living conditions, overcrowding, and lack of sanitation. Significant epidemics were recorded during periods of social upheaval, such as the Irish Famine in the 1840s, which brought many impoverished migrants to the city. Efforts to improve public health and sanitation eventually helped reduce the incidence of the disease.
