How Measles Spread
A TRUE STORY


A farmer and stockman from the
little town Of A, went to Kansas City
With carload Of stock. Nine days Ia
ter he had bad cold. He spent two
days wandering from store TO store in
the little town telling his friends what
q fearful thing his cold was. The
twelfth day the eruption occurred and
bis physician tackled up 3 measles sign
on the house.
But twas too late Two weeks Ia
ter twenty-eight Of his friends who had
listened sympathetically to bis ''cold'
troubles, also had the measles. In two
weeks more twenty-eight other cases
resulted, and two weeks later thirty
cases-eighty-si six in ali. That, being
nearly the entire population Of the
town, ended the epidemic in that com
munity.
But OF the first crop Of twenty-eight
cases at A, one visited the home Of .
physician In the city Of B. The physi-
clan, not knowing his child was expos
ed, permitted its attendance at school
regularly and the child ''broke OUT in
school. From this child it spread to
forty, three families or ninety cases.
A visitor from the city of G.. 10 the
town of A. came home, attended the
city schools OF c., and the disease
snread to over one hundred cases there.
During the county examinations held
at C. and at the height Of the epidemic
there a pupil from the city schools Of
D. was exposed to the infection. In
spite Of this knowledge this pupil did
not cease school attendance and thirty
cases resulted in D.
It would have been an inconvenience
for the stockman to have stayed at
home while he had his "bad cold'' but
If he had done SO he would have pre-
vented over three hundred cases Of
measles; much loss of time to children
in school; doctor bills and probably
weakened constitutions and complica-
tons which will cause earlier deaths OF
some Of the victims than would other
wise be their lot.-From State Board
Of Health Bulletin, July.
