Thus far, the cases are mild. rarely compli- cated and few fatal. Of the citids re- portihg, New Haven and Hartford had one death each and Waterbury two. Such investigations as have beea made to date indicate that practically all of the victimg of this outbreak are among those who escaped the last epidemic. This is in accord With the general belief that one attack estab- lishes immunity from further attacks A disconcerting featurs of thé situs tion, however, is the fact ihat there are over a million people in Connecti- cut who did not have influenza last year, many of whom are liable to in= fection. It is true that wany of these ‘are natural immunes, but a sufficient- ly large number of non-immunes fe: main_to make it advisable to take all the_ precautionary measures possible. Health officers should immediately gét in touch with the physicians of their towns and arrange for prompt and regular reporting.
