The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1878-09-04
IS YELLOW FRYER CONTAGIOUS.

The readers of the LEADER have
doubtless noticed the fact that the
semi-Southern city Of Louisville, KY,
freely allows all yellow fever refugees
an asylum in its limits, without ques-
tion or examination, while Pittsburg,
a Northern city, has an established
quarantine. Taking advantage of
Iouisville's hospitality, thousands of
people have locked there, and the hegi-
IA continues undated and unopposed.
Many of the refugees are sick with
yellow fever when they get there; 9TH
ers, carrying with them the germs of
the disease, take it afterwards; while
some of the poor folks die. Yet not a
single case is reported of a resident Of
Louisville becoming infected. The
citizens are not at all alarmed at the
presence of the disease, but go about
their daily duties rs usual.
The question then arises, SIS yellow
fever contagious?r Judging from the
experience of Louisville, one would i'm
mediately answer NO" But as South
ern cities continue to quarantine
against one another, one is held in
doubt. Medical authority then must
determine. Let us see what some of
the eminent authors say:
DIR. George B. Wood, in his "Prac-
tice of Medicine, = concludes a chapter
on yellow fever by saying: SIT seems to
me that the doctrine of the contagious
ness of yellow fever, in the ordinary
meaning Of the term, is quite untena
able"
DR.. Robt. b. Murray, who attended
many cases at Key West i'll 1875, said
lie had no more fear of treating yellow
fever than in binding up a fractured
leg." In his report to the Supervising
Surgeon General on the yellow fever
cases., lie said: 1--WE conclude, then,
that germs have nothing to do with the
disease; that it is absolutely non-con-
tagious and non=infectious In the sense
that smallpox is contagious and typhus
infectious. When the disease occurs
sick and ueH should be removed to
healthy localities without delay
DR.. VIM. Aitkin, an eminent British
authority. in speaking Of the yellow
fever in Lisbon in 1857, states that;
