Whal About Pneumonia! % Over 6.000 persons died of pneumonia in Illinois during 1934. How many of these lives might have been spared if modern serum, treatment had been employed 1 -- an ylmbarassing question for health authorities who know how effective is the use of the proper pneumonia serum To use the proper kind of serum it is necessary for the physician to have a diagnostic laboratory examine the patient's sputum to determine the type of pneumonia germ causing the disease Since practically no sputum specimens are received in the State diagnostic laboratories for pneumococcus typing, it may be presumed that serum therapy is not employed as" generally as might be advantageous or at least that serum therapy might be employed more scientifically than heretofore. Therefore, a word or two concerning the modern diagnosis and treatment of pneumonia should be entirely a propos. Pneumonia is usually classed in two ways, lobar pneumonia or a consolidation of one or more lobes of the lungs, and bronchial pneumonia or a patchy distribution of small areas of consolidation in the lungs. Lobar pneumonia is usually caused by a specific germ, the pneumococcus, while bronchial pneumonia may be caused by a variety of bacteria. The greatest advances have been made in the diagnosis and treatment of lobar pnteum<onia, caused by the pneumococcus. Bacteriologists now recognize at least 32 types of neumococci and the recently rediscovered Neuf eld test for determining1 the type of pneumococcus in a patients' sputum makes possible the typing of the caustjve germ within a few minutes after the sputum is received in the laboratory. The test, which is simplicity itself, consists of adding various types of rabbit antiserum with a drop of dye to portions of the sputum and observing the preparation under the microscope; the type of rabbit antiserum which causes the capsule of the pneumococcus in the sputum to swell indicates the type to which the germ belongs. This method gives positive results in approximately 76 per cent of the specimens, and where it fails the older methods of tying such as mouse injection, precipitin tests, etc., may be used. But what's the purpose and necessity of determining the type of the pneumococcus in the sputum ? Simply this, tf very effective serum for patients who have pneumonia caused by " 'i > -! ' .

The likelihood of substantially greater prevalence during the late winter and spring and the |\igh fatality from this disease are disquieting factors in the situation. Diphtheria is running a course similar to that a year ago, much below former levels but somewhat higher than in 1934 Case reports range from 50 to 100 weekly. ' Smallpox * prevalence has been sporadic with from 2 to 10 cases reported weekly. The trend has been a little above last season. Poliomyelitis, while low in prevalence, 2 to 5 cases weekly, is running higher than a year ago Usually this disease almost completely disappears in mid-winter. Chickenpox is at the usual winter Incidence level of from 800 to 600 new cases weekly. Scarlet fever and measles were more prevalent in 1935 than in any other Smallpox was less prevalent than ever before. The typhoid incidence was one of the lowest ever recorded. Diphtheria ran about 600 cases above 1934 Cerebro-spinal meningitis was more prevalent than in any previous year except 1929. Tuberculosis ran about 300 cases above 1934.
