Item Details
Description
Komsomoliya Uzbekistana - Na Shturm Malyarii [Uzbekistan Komsomol, Get Ready to Eradicate Malaria!], a poster by artist with the last name Finikov. Published by the Republican Center for Sanitary Propaganda, Tashkent, 1933. 105.5 x 68 cm.

Uzbekistan’s most fertile lands are in the flood plains along its major rivers, so the majority of the country’s population historically lived in areas susceptible to malaria. Through the early 1930s the disease was actually on the rise, in part due to the expansion of the acreage of land dedicated to rice cultivation. Early Soviet efforts to combat malaria had limited success. A more effective program was launched in the 1950s, leading to eradication of the disease by 1961.
