HOSPITAL

A hospital is an institution for caring for the sick and injured. The name derives from House of God' s
Hospitality, and were founded by the church in obedience to the injunction to care for the sick. Not until the late Victorian era would doctors attend to sexually transmitted diseases, believing them to be punishments from God. A view still held by many religious people today, although now more commonly applied to 'AIDS' than other STDs.
