Answer 2

n 1882, Helen Keller was struck deaf and blind at age 19 months by a febrile illness that she said her doctors described as “acute congestion of the stomach and brain.” Historical accounts of Keller’s life have speculated that the illness was rubella, scarlet fever, encephalitis or meningitis, but the exact cause of her deafblindness remains a mystery.
