At that time he might be free from both lice and nits and. if such was the case, he would no tendanger the lives of anyene around hiui, even though he might be stricken with. the . disease himself,” says Mr. Osborn. Consequéntly, the health department »f the state is- taking every precaution te investigate every case that is reported Tag and to inspect immigrants who might possibly. have infected lice on them. The state department of health makes A special request that physicians any- where in Connecticut who have patients @howing symptoms of typhus telephone or telegraph that fact to the department at once. It is important that the central health authorities know of all case~ as soon as poséible, says Dr. Osborn. in arder that typhus .may be kept from spreading and that steps may: be taken to-delouse all persons who have been associated with the infected ones.
