[Medical mission of Louis-André Gosse during his trip to Greece (1827-1829)].
Louis-André Gosse (1791-1873), a liberal-minded Geneva physician, went to Greece in 1827 in order to work, for a couple of years, for the Greek State, which had won its independence just a few years ago. When, in 1828, an Egyptian army brought plague back to Greece, Gosse took an active part in the fight against the epidemic. The present author gives a detailed account of Gosse's relation of his experience including treatment and preventive measures.
