"Father of modern epidemiology"!?
[edit]Removed weasel wording ("often").... According to his published biography (Wade Hampton Frost, Pioneer Epidemiologist 1880–1938: Up to the Mountain) he is a ‘‘little known... academic medical figure’’ so how is he "OFTEN considered the FATHER of MODERN EPIDEMIOLOGY" .... Not many sources seem to back this up. And the citation is broken! Fairly significant claim for a stub....
Of the first 10 google results for "Father of modern epidemiology," nine say John Snow, and one says Jerome Fracastor (Girolamo Fracastoro).
