摘要

第二次世界大战后不久,抗生素的问世成为结核病历史上的一个转折点,因为结核病开始被视为一种可以治疗的疾病,从而被认为不再对公众健康构成威胁。然而,这种说法淡化了疗养院在结核病治疗中的作用,也淡化了结核病对曾经患病的人造成的长期后果。这篇文章通过研究比利时西泽勒的伊丽莎白疗养院,探讨了这些突然战胜结核病的说法的出现、原因和影响。档案资料以及对前工作人员和病人的访谈反映了结核病在战后的持续甚至复发,表明疗养院及其公共生活结构和做法是如何继续存在的。此外,这种胜利主义的叙事使得社会保持沉默,这使得前病人在应对结核病的后遗症时更具挑战性。

The End of Tuberculosis? A Belgian Sanatorium and Questionable Narratives of the Triumph Over Disease (1947–1986)
The introduction of antibiotics shortly after the Second World War constituted a turning point in the history of tuberculosis, since the disease came to be perceived as a treatable one which was thereby thought to no longer pose a threat to public health. This narrative, however, downplayed the role of the sanatorium in the treatment of tuberculosis, as well as the long-term consequences of the disease for those people who had once been affected. The article explores the emergence, the causes, but also the implications of these narratives of a sudden triumph over tuberculosis by studying the Elisabeth sanatorium of Sijsele in Belgium. The persistence and even resurgence of tuberculosis in the post-war period is reflected in archival information and interviews with former staff members and patients which indicate how the sanatorium and its communal living structures and practices lingered on. Moreover, such triumphalist narratives enabled a societal silence, which made coping with the aftermath of tuberculosis all the more challenging for former patients.
