dc.description.abstract | In this article, the introduction of the Wassermann Test and arsenic-based drugs
in Belgian post-war venereal disease (VD) policy is discussed (for the period 1900-
1930). Pre-war advances in clinical medicine, the development of the Wassermann Test
and arsenical drugs, as well as war conditions, were important in putting syphilis onto
the public agenda in Belgium. However, the way in which new diagnostic and therapeutic
techniques and devices were incorporated within post-war VD policy depended on the
reconciliation of a range of political, professional and moral agendas of interested
health-political parties. Finally, a successful post-war VD policy depicted in terms of
«The Belgian Experience» is discussed. | es_ES |
