The documental sources prior to the appareance in 1840 of the specialized medical press in Cuba were reviewed in order to find everything published at that time concerning tuberculosis. The Capitular Acts of the Municipal Goverment of Havana, written between 1550 and 1799, as well as the general periodical press produced in the island from 1780 to 1840, were consulted. In all, three news were recovered from the Capitular Acts and ten from the general periodical press.
