Comma-bacillus assembly

Or: Cholera meeting at the Peach Hospital
The image is accompanied by statements from Dr. Cheeseslicer, Dr. Bacillus Bacterius, Dr. Bablesi-Bibasiu (the Hungarian Pasteur), Dr. Striker! (Louis the Great, Cholera King), Dr. Veterinarius Bacterius, and Dr. Lacyllus Lupus. A note at the end indicates, “While the doctors strew about the seeds of the theory, Cholera Asiatica reaps happily, and Dr. Cheeseslicer notes with consolation: Yet this is cholera nostras and not Asian, because they are dying for us!”
(Bolond Istók, Budapest, 1886) (Yes, this wants further parsing in the context of domestic politics.) (See also this Dutch variant of cholera nostras.)
