History
Epidemic Respiratory Disease: The pneumonias and other infections of the repiratory tract accompanying influenza and measles
Five instances of pneumonia following typhoid fever (Autopsies 245 and
329), scarlet fever (Autopsy 311) or mumps (Autopsies 403 and 417) have
been excluded from the table. These secondary pneumonias are grouped as
an appendix to the section on pneumonia following measles. It is not
improbable that individuals with the diseases named are just as
susceptible as others to influenza. Included in the table is an instance
(Autopsy 487) in which a definite attack of influenza preceded scarlet
fever.
