MISSISSIPPI STATE BOARD
OF HEALTH.
BULLETIN.

1t is important that the public
should know something of Span
ish influenza. There is a strong
probability that this disease will
cause an immense amount of sick
ness during the coming winter,
unless precautions are taken,
much of which may result fatally
to those afflicted, owing to COM
plications, such as pneumonia
and meningitis. Therefore, this
disease should not be regarded
lightly by the public. 1t is report
ed that something like eight mill
ion cases have occurred in Spain,
and scores of cases have resulted
fatally. A telegram has been re-
ceived from the United States
Public Health Service, and also
the War Department, urging that
the utmost care be used to pre-
vent the spread Of this disease.
A number of cases Of thi3 dis
ease have already been reported
in Mississippi, and precautions
taken to prevent it's spread. 1t
may be stated that no other COM
municable disease which assumes
epidemic proportions, spread so
rapidly or attacks indiscriminate-
ly SO large a proportion of the
public. It should be noted that
past epidemics have been charac-
terized by a profound prostration
out of all proportion to the inten-
sity of the disease. Because of
this fact, it is believed that this
disease has impaired the efficiency
of the German army. This fact
has been so reported. It is the
patriotic duty Of every man, wo-
man and child to avoid this mis-
fortune to our army, as we'll as
the civilian population from which
the army is drawn.
The public should know some
thing of the symptoms of this dis
ease. In giving the symptoms,
you should keep in minc that mild
cases may occur and render diff
cult an accurate diagnosis. But
these mild cases will serve as a
means of spreading the disease
just as we'll as the more serious
cases. For this ereason any case
of influenza, whether it be regard
ed as ordinary, or the so-called
Spanish influenza, should be
placed under the rule. In case of
doubt in the diagnosis, the case
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1918-10-03

should be isolated until condi-
tons Of the patient can be deter
mined. It is imperative that the
physicians of the state use their
own opinion and judgment rela-
tive to handling such cases, rath-
err than follow the advice and the
usual expressions by the laity.
Influenza has a sudden onset
and as a rule chill, or decided
chilly" sensation is the first man
Hesitation, then fever with tenn
perature from 100 degrees to 103
to 104 degrees, with headache and
backache, redness and running of
the eyes, flush face and pains all
over the body, accompanied by
general prostration. The throat
feels sore, there is congestion OF
the pharynx and in some instan-
ces, laryngitis and bronchitis. In
many cases, the fever falls in
three or four days and the pa
tient RECEIVERS rapidly; in others,
there is an irregular temperature
which may be accounted for by
bronchitis, broncho-pneumonia, or
by the presence Of the influenza
bacilla in the blood.
The most serious thing about
influenza is the tendency toward
the development of fatal complica-
tons, as pneumonia, r-meningit-
is. Although the treatment is
simple, because of the danger of
complications it is exceedingly inn
portant that the proper care and
treatment be instituted promptly.
The most important part Of the
treatment is rest in bed from the
onset of the disease until all the
symptoms are gone. The patient
should be given fresh air and a.
bundant food. So long as the pa
tient has fever the case should be
regarded as serious and of course
kept in bed Because Of the ten
dency of the development of bron-
cho-pneumonia, all patients should
invariably be placed in well ven
tilated and warm rooms. The con-
valescent requires calc to avoid
serious sequelae, as pneumonia
and meningitis. Juinine and as
perrin may be used very success
fully during the acute attack.
This disease, like all commune
cable diseases, is transmitted
from one individual to another
The sources of infection are un-
doubtedly the secretions from the
nose and throat and lungs of ca
ses or carriers. The mode OF
transmission is by direct or indi-
rect conveyance of these secre-

cry is carried. The cas-. numbers

trancing ballet of 800 dancing

tons follow the spectacle on the
main-tent program. There are
great troupes of seals, dogs and
monkeys that walk on tight ropes
and ride horseback; herds Of ele-

lions BY "droplet' injection, as
in sneezing and coughing, or by
means Of handkerchief, towels,
eating utensils, etc.
This disease can undoubtedly be
controlled by the strict isolation
of cases. While general quaran-
tine is not desirable nor practical
BILE, it may be wise to prevent
children Of families where cases
occur from attending school or
any kind of public gathering.
The discharges from the throat
and mouth and other respiratory
passages of the patient should Of
course be burned or treated with
some chemical disinfectant.
Remember: If you develop
symptoms Of influenza, go home
and go to bed. This is wise, both
from the standpoint Of yourself
and the general public. It may
save you a serious spell of sick
ness. Therefore, do not take
chances" You should conserve
the resisting power of the body
and this cannot be done going a.
bout your daily work while sick.
These are the cases most likely to
develop serious complications.

the teachers of Mississippi dur
ing the present session emphasize
the Importance of the children not
sneezing, coughing and splitting
promiscoously at any time, but es-
pecially while at school. would
strongly urge statewide CAM
paign in our schools on this
point during this session. It will
not only prevent influenza but will
also be of tremendous Importance
in the prevention Of diphtherja,
scarlet fever, measles, pneumonia,
bad colds, and indeed, any respi-
ratory disease. We should appre-
ciate these facts, and in a quiet,
effective and intelligent way see
that such precautions are adVoea-
ted and observed throughout Mis-
sissippi.
