The reform that significantly reduced deaths from gastrointestinal infections and continues to keep these types of deaths low today is The Pure Food and Drug Act. This act, passed in 1906, aimed to ensure that food and pharmaceuticals were safe and properly labeled, which has had a long-lasting impact on public health by regulating the safety and quality of food products.
