INFLUENZA WAS SOLDIERS’ ENEMY This Killed Many Americans in England London, July 10, (Correspondence half the deaths among the American soldiers in Great Britain were due to influenza. The total number of cases of the disease in the three months of | the epidemic among the Americans here reached 7,512. In that period deaths from pneumonia, develéping in most cases from influenza, num- bered 1,717. Of 6,000 troops brought on one wip by the Steamer Olympic, 2,000 contracted the disease and, as about one-thivd of these cases devel- oped pneumonia, the proportien of fatalities was very large. These figures are contained in an elaborate report being prepgred by the American Red Cross covering the work of the organization in Great Britain up to the beginning of this year.

But before the troops could be debarked the number of cases had increased five fold. The weather was at its worst, cold, wet and misty. ““When the Olympic drew into port,” says the report, ‘‘and the news of the outbreak of influenza was received, the medical authorities hesitated to disembark all these troops, who were fresh from training camps in the mild climate of the Southern state: For the only place to take them was the Southampton rest camp, which was situated on low wet ground, and was without adequate facilities for taking care of sick men or men who had been exposed to an epidemic. Most of the housing in the camp was in tents without cots, and the men had to sleep on floors which consisted merely of one layer of thin boards a few inches off the ground.” For .a few days the doctors tried to fight the epidemic on shipboard, but it became so flercely virulent that it finally became necessary to disembark the men and take them to the rest camp. “The medical authorities in the hos- pitals around Southampton,” the re- port says, “were well equipped to deal witn any ordinary outbreak of dis: ease, but this emergency taxed to the breaking point all their accommoda- tions and preparations. Supplies, not only of drugs and equipment, but also of doctors and nurses were rapidly ex- hausted.” Here, the report points out, was a signal opportunity for the Red Cross, and it lent valuable aid in securing in- stant delivery of needed supplies and clothing and in providing accommo- | dations for many of the patients. From 76 cases of influenza among | American soldiers in Great Britain | during the week ending September 9, | the number jumped to 2,330 on Sep- | tember 30. That was the highwater mark and from then on there was a sharp and steady decline, the number | dwindling to eight cases by Decembar 8.
