CONTAGIOUS or Infectious.


To the Editor of the Standard:
Promotions" in yesterdays issue at
tempted to distinguish between the
term Contagious and Infectious as
applied ito disease, but failed because he
lost sight of the fact that cause is not
effect, and of the difference that fire.
quently exists in the ancient and mod
ern use of the same term. A word mas
no meaning but that given by custom
and usage and in a living language Is
always subject to change as the GUS
toms of the people and the conditions
of scientific knowledge change Be
fore the germ theory became an ac-
cepted fact, certain diseases communl-
cable by personal contact We're called
contagious, from "contingo"-to touch.
AS the action of microbes as a cause of
disease became known the use of the
word contagious, as indicating disease
communica BILE by personal contact only,
was abandoned, for science demonstrate
ed that no such disease existed and its
use was extended to include all dis
eases transmssible from man to man,
whether by contact or through air, wat
err or other conveyance. In this sense
it is used to- day by all the leading med
ical writer's and by the sanitary boards
of New York and other states. Inf5c-
'tious diseases are those produced by a
specific virus: and, of course, include all
contagious diseases, as well as the class
called miasmatic, in which the germ is
not transmissible from man to man,
and which consequently is not contag-
ious. Malaria is considered the most
perfect type Of this class. Therefore,
though all contagious diseases are in
fictitious, being caused by a specific prin-
ciple, all infectious diseases are not con-
| tagious. the distinction being that while
all germ diseases are infectious, only
those tranSmissible from patient to pa
tent are contagious. DRUGGIST.
