How Flies Garry Typhoid.

In South Orange, N. j., number Of
cases of typhoid fever occurred which
seemed to radiate from one point. The
original case occurred at this point, and
the flies were found to be travelling in
and out of the open and unscreened
windows in large numbers. A fly cage
was placed in the room, and the specific
germs Of typhoid fever isolated from a
number of these flies. There is no ques-
secondary cases, and there is also no
question but that further cases might
have been prevented had proper screen
ing and disinfection been originally en-
ployed.
In New York city over 100 cases of
typhoid fever occurred almost within the
limits of one block. This block was a
model tenement, with the proper plumb.
ing and up-to-date sanitation, but close
to the block were two stables-one in
filthy condition-and two open lots, each
at the beginning of the outbreak contain
ing many accumuations of Objectionable
matter, much of which harbored disease
germs. These deposits were swarming
with houseflies, and the same flies were
going in and out of the tenement house
windows and lighting on the exposed
food of adjoining shops.
The attention OF the health department
was called to the condition OF amalrs,
and it was recommended that all exposed
filth in this neighborhood be disinfected
continuously until the epidemic had
ceased, The department, still believing
that the probable source of the epidemic
was water or possibly milk, did not disin-
feet the open lots, So far as could be
learned, and. the epidemic continued
through the fly season.
Inasmuch as the milk supplied to this
sectionl was the same as in several other
sections of the borough where little or
no typhoid occurred, and, also, inasmuch
as the water was from precisely the same
source as in the rest of the borough
where the conditions were normal, it |
seems almost incredible that any other
source of infection than flies could have
been even considered. A canvass of the |
showed that the people |
were all boiling their drinking water, and
most of them boiling their milk, but that
none of them had been in any way in
structed to guard against flies.
