STATE HEAL THbOARD
ISSUES BULLETIN
ON INFLUENZA

The State Board of Health has Just
issued the following bulletin on the
influenza epidemic:
Spanish Influenza
Because of the great seriousness of
Spanish influenza throughout the I'm
tied States. many requests have come
to the State Board of Health for lit
erature on this disease or suggestions
as to control and treatment
Not much is known as to this form
of influenza, but il is believed that
there is but little difference in it from
la grippe, which appeared in pandemic
form i'm 1889. All evidence points to
human contact as being the means of
spread. and from the local symptoms
il has been assumed that the nose and
throat have been the points of egress
of the virus and the points of inocu-
lation. There is nothing to show tina.
