:B—16 CUMMING GIVES INFLUENZA ADVICE = Surgeon General Says No Specific Cure Has Ever Been Found. There is no specific cure for influ- enza, according to Surg. Gen. Hugh S. Cumming of the Public Health Service, but there are certain precautions the public should take to prevent spread of the disease and to check its course in the_victim. The “keynote Tule” in combating the 4fiy,” he declared, is “Go home and go to bed.” Then call the doctor. Things to do in case the doctor can't eome, he said, were: “Remain in bed, eat a simple diet, take plenty of fluids, such as water, fruit juices, milk, bou- Sion and hot ‘soups at frequent inter- vals. “Do not take any so-called cure. There is no specific cure.” ! This procedure, Dr. Cumming said, should prevent the influenza patient from becoming seriously ill. Influenza itself, he emphasized, is not fatal—the pneumonia which often fol- lows it is often fatal. Rest was stressed as most important. “Remain in bed until all symptoms have disappeared and then, under the | physician’s advice, return very gradual- ly to usual physical activities, being sure to rest before becoming tired,” was the surgeon general’s prescription. For the able-bodied he prescribed: . Eight to ten hours’ sleep every night, with windows open, und<” wafm covers. Eating a moderate mixed diet and drinking six to eight glasses of pure water daily. - Wearing clothing warm enggsh to prevent chilling of body surfaces. Avolding people with colds, especially :.‘hnkxe sneezing or just beginning to feel | ck. Keep out of crowds in closed places. Avoid use of common utensils. ‘Wash the hands frequently, and especially before eating. Avoid the use of any “so-called pre- ventives — vaccines, sera and ad- preventives seem be of no value lnd may be harmful in this disease.” Avoid alcohol and stimulants of all WIlk to work if possible :nd keep as much as you can in the open air, .
