Solution
The correct option is A 1852-53
Between 1852 and 1923, the world would see four more cholera pandemics. The third pandemic, stretching 1852–1859, was the deadliest. It devastated Asia, Europe, North America and Africa, killing 23,000 people in Great Britain alone in 1854, the worst single year of cholera. Hence, Option A is correct. Among the rest timelines, in 1873-74, the fourth epidemic occurred in Hungary. And the fifth spanned 1892-93. Hence, these are incorrect.
