Cause OF Influenza -- The bacillus
causing the disease has not been iso-
lated. but many bacilli are associated
with it, such as the strepticoci pneu-
mococci and influenza bacilli. Con
tlibuting cause. low temperature.
Summer heat prevents influenza. The
disease spreads over the country along
the line of travel first attacking the
population of the cities, and later the
ishabitants OF the rural districts. 1t
Is my observation that the baCilli dis
appear before or by the time the pa
tient RECEIVERS, and Is not active after
the sickness has continued four or five
days. This would establish the in
fictitious period to the early part of
the attack. Also in order to con-
tract influenza the victim must be
in close proximity 10 the infected.
Immunity None OF the cases
treated during the past epidemic suf-
fered return OF the disease. and I
believe that persons at the age of 40
and over, who for some reason we're
immune in the 1919 epidemic. had
previously been the victims of influ-
enza.
Diagnosis -The diagnosis is easy
during an epidemic but difficult in in
tervals between epidemics. During
the latter period many mistakes are
made in diagnosis The complications
are bronchitis, sore throat. weaken
