A RESUME OF INFLUENZA

OF the influenza situation for Delta
county since the beginning of the cpl
demic in October brings to light some
facts that justify quarantine measures
as we'll as pointing out q line Of pro-
ceedure for the public for protection
against influenza.
All cases Of Spanish influenza that
have been brought to the attention
OF the medical profession have invar'
ably been traced to an exposure from
already existing cases and the as
sumption based on the fact that an
absolute quarantine OF the cases
would prevent further spread Of the

military supervision can be made alb

with a population of 1000 currently
reports 1874 cases-while Delta county
a population of approximately 1000.
accurately reports II cases. This is
an evident fact to any thinking mind
that the Delta county quarantine has
been big success. While it is fact
that the quarantine has worked more
OF less hardship, yet business has
managed to stay close to normal, lives
have been saved, suffering lessened.
homes held together that would un-
doubtedly have been wrecked were it
not for this rigid quarantine.
A predominant factor in the control
Of this disease now is the fact that
the people of Delta and Delta county
are cooperating in the prevention o
exposure by the absence of visiting.

Wednes' / was "Ersatz" Christmas

tient goes to bed is considered by
many, as the most contagious period.
For this epidemic to be kept under
control it is necessary for each and
every person to constitute themselves
a committee of one to avoid exposure
and report to the proper authorities
all suspected cases and likewise to
render all cases necessary aid in sup
plies nursing and helping; with every
one helping, as they have in the past,
we can expect that there will be no
increase in the number of cases.
No one has any grounds for assum-
ing that this disease may not last
for the next six months, or longer. II
depends very largely upon whether
we keep our strict quarantine work
ing or not; with the personal help o.
everyone in the county or whether
we get careless.
Another important factor IN rne sue
cess of this quarantine has been the
absolute and complete harmony ex-
listing between the various town and
their health boards and the county
board and also the unstinteu support
and loyalty of the various mayors and
the board of county commissioners.
Our death rate has been 2k per
cent as compared with II and IL per
cent of surrounding counties and 80
per cent in Chicago. This is due al
together to the quarantine. which
profound study proves lessons the
virulence of the influenza germ and
allows treatment to become effective
before it can get in its deadly work
This favorable showing for Delta
county can also be attributed to tho
( fact of the epidemic being sufficient
