Data. which need not be cited here in
detail. Indicate that the course of the
epidemic in western Europe generally
WIS similar. III the United States the
epidemic developed more largely in
"A single wave during September, Oc-
toher and November.
The prevalence of a serious cpidem-
10 of influenza was first recognized in
and around Boston in September of
l9lS. Within about two weeks ii was
general in the Atlantic Seaboard. de-
veloring n little later among cities fur
thcr west. Rural districts were usu-
ally attacked somewhat later than
large interests in the same sections.
In the cities east of the line c. the
Appalachians the excess mortality
from pneumonia and influenza during
the weeks ended September II, 1918,
Ia March |, 1919. WAS approximately
40 per 1000; in cities between the
Rock! maintains and the Appalachi-
ans 49,; and in those of the Pacific
Coast 900 per 1000.
Concerning the important question
of immunity conferred by an attack
of influenza, the evidence is not con
elusive. but there is reason to believe
that an attack during the earlier
stages of the epidemic confers a con
siderable, but not absolute immunity
in the later outbreaks.
Transmitted by Contact.
In general the pandemic of influenza
was largely similar To that of lSS9-90

in the rapidity of its spread and its
high ease incidence. 1t has however
been notably different in II much high
or mortality. especially among young
adults. Such evidence rs has been
gathered confirms the conclusion pre-
viouSly reached that it is transmitted
directly and indirectly 10y contact. 1t
appears, probable, however, that the
liilfilibn WIS lllfi'lA Nl'lflA hlNNfll-
mated in this country sometime be-
fore n serious epidemic was recog-
nizcd.
Despite the fact that there is still
SOME uncertainty as 10 TIA" nature of
the micro organiSm causing pundem-
lc influenza, one thing is certain, that
the disease is communicable from per-
son Ia person. Moreover, judging
from experience in other diseases, it
Is probable that the germ, whatever
its nature, is carried about not only
by those who are i'll with influenza,
hul by persons who may be entirely
well. Everything which increases per-
soual contact, therefore, should he re-
garded ~ u factor in spreading inllu-
rnza.
Much WAS heard last winter of the
use of face masks. Though the use Of
suitably constructed masks will reduce
the Interchange of respiratory germs
New Mexico state record. (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1914-19??, 1919-10-10

through inlialati N. II must be remem
bered that there are many other paths
10y which such germs are transmitted
from person to person. Soiled hands,
common drinking cups, improperly
cleaned eating and drinking utensils
in restaurants, soda fountains, ETC.,
roller towels. infected food-these are
of germ transmission. The use of face
masks appears to make people neglect
these other paths of infection, and 50
the use of face masks has not been
attended with the success predicted
for them. If we would be more sue
err attention must be paid to the fac
tors Just enumerated.
The question of most practical and
Immediate interest is the probability
of recurrence in the near future. Re-
currences are characteristic of infiu-
enza epidemics; and the history of the
last pandemic and previous ones
would seem to point to the conclusion
that this one has not yet run its full
course. On the other hand this cpl
demic has already shown three more
on less distinct phases and has been
more severe, at least in mortality, than
the ~three-year epidemic of 1SS9-92,
facts which Justify the hope, though
not the conclusion, that it has run its
course already.
Recurrence Is Likely.
II seems probable, however, that we
may expect ut least local occurrences
in the near future. with an increase
owe the normal mortality from pneu-
monia for perhaps several years; and
certainly we should be, as far as pos
Siblp, prepared to meet them by pre-
viouS organization of forces and meas
ureS for attempted prevention, treat
ment, and scientific investigation.
There should be no repetition Of the
extensive suffering and distress which
accompanied last years pandemic.
Communities should make plans now
for dealing with any recurrence of the
epidemic. The prompt recognition of
the early eases and their effective isO-
latiOn should be aimed at. In this con-
n%ection, attention is called to the fact
that the cases may appear 10 be just
ordinary colds. A recent extensive
outbreak of what We're regarded ms
summer colds" in Peoria, Illinois,
proved on investigation to be an ep-
idemic of IA mild type of influenza.
Experience indicates that these mild
cpidemlcS are often the starting points
of more severe visitations. Hence ev-
cry effort should be made to discover
as early rs possible amy unusual prey
alcnce of colds"
For municipalities operating on a
budget basis, it is important that all
delay in providing the necessary finan-
ciul support Ia the health authorities
in dealing with n recurrence of the
epidemic he avoided by setting aside
an emergency epidemic fund. This
may prove of the greatest value In car
rying out important preventive meas
ureS in the early days of the epidem-
jc. AT II time when their beneficial eff
feet is greatest.
The most promising way Ia deal with
II possible recurrence of the influenza
epidemic is, To sum ii up in Il single
word, Preparedness" And now II
