Answer :

August 1854 was when discovered Cholera by John Snow.

He discovered Cholera when there was an outbreak which occurred in Soho. After he carefully investigated the outbreak, by plotting cases of cholera on a map of the area, he was able to identify a water pump in Broad Street as the source of the disease.

He had the handle of the pump removed, and cases of cholera immediately began to diminish.
