#6 Polio
Polio is typical spread through fecal matter and affects the nervous system. In 1916, the United States experienced its first polio epidemic, with more epidemics occurring in the 1940's and 1950's. Towns were often quarantined and mass panic took over, as the disease destroyed motor neurons, causing patients to be bedridden and unable to walk.
