ted fever in Virginia. Laboratory eX-
periments showed that the virus Of the
disease could be transmitted from the
Rocky Mountain tick to the dog tick.
Why it jumped two-thirds Of conti-
nent is unknown Since then there have
been sporadic cases in other sections
but the main concentration has been
in the Virginia-D. C.-Maryland area.
Summer Disease.
1t Is a Summer disease, since 1t is un-
likely to occur except during heavy veg
citation. Experiments at the National
Institute of Health here it was stated
yesterday, have almost certainly estab-
lished the fact that the virus is trans
mitted to human victims by the dog
tick 1t can be transmitted expert
mentally by this means.
The eastern type of the disease is dis
tinguished chiefly by being less virulent
than the Rocky Mountain type. For
the past two years the mortality rate
has been about 20 per cent. comparing
with the more favorable Rocky Noun
tain localities.
AS in the West, the tendency here
seems to be to concentrate in pockets
but the cases are so few that these
cannot as yet be sharply defined. The
prevalence in Anne Arundel County
may be an example of such concen-
tration. 1t is much less likely to occur
in a CITY because Of the absence of
tick vegetation.
Dogs Transfer Ticks.
The ordinary method Of transference.
it is explained. is due to some dog
brushing infected ticks off its body
when passing through bushes. Then
these will fasten on the first warm
blooded animal that comes along and
bury themselves in the skin. In the
case of children, particularly, the pres
ence may never be known.
1t also is possible, it was pointed out,
for the disease to be transmitted by
picking a tick off dog and crushing 1t
against the hand. How far dog ticks in
general have become carriers CT the
virus is unknown.
The National Institute Of Health Is
making intensive studies Of the Eastern
type of the disease which, while not yet
particularly alarming. might get out Of
hand. A laboratory for the manufac-
ture of vaccine has been established
there
The disease may be mistaken for
typhus fever, it is pointed out by the
Public Health Service. 1t Is due to one
of those mysterious filterable viruses,
supposedly about the lowest forms Of
life and too small ever to be visible.
