Answer:
<u>The yellow fever epidemic had lasting consequences for the city.</u>
Explanation:
This is the best answer because the passage is about the deadly and lasting consequences that yellow fever had: the author mentions that an approximate of five thousand people were victims of it, many died, including people like ministers, sextons, and city officials; and those who did not die, had to flee the city. Such mortality rate and mass departure must have changed completely the way people lived back then, it should have been catastrophic for the city, as the author concludes: <em>The fear had gone too deep, the losses were all too real and personal. </em>
