The protean manifestations of the 1890 epidemic, with its unusual nervous sequelæ, have not been seen to any extent, as far as we yet know. In fact, the present epidemic appears to be relatively free from complications other than those occurring in the lung during the acute course of the disease. Hence, in all likelihood, there will be less of the nervous after effects to be treated. It is, however, too early to hope that the nervous system is going to escape. In another part of this volume the vaccine therapy is discussed in detail, so that we shall not repeat what has been brought out in that article. We would, however, emphasize the value of honest and accurate clinical reports of the use of vaccines, in order to establish their present status in epidemic influenza. Overestimation and commercialism are very likely to ruin a method of treatment, even when it may be of value in a certain phase of the disease. If we do not carefully weigh the pros and cons of the vaccine treatment in this epidemic from a purely scientific and coldly neutral attitude, we are simply doing the public and ourselves an injustice. The treatment of influenza as the disease presented itself to us in this community will be considered under three divisions—acute influenza, pneumonia, and other complications. _Acute Influenza_ There is one important thing to be done in the treatment of influenza, whether the infection be mild or severe. Have the patient go to bed as soon as possible. In most of the acute attacks the individual went to bed of his own accord; but there were, unfortunately, too many instances where the patient refused to surrender, trying, as we say, to fight the attack. Some appeared to be able to accomplish this feat. But how many of our cases of fatal pneumonia can be clearly linked up with this group of the mild or subacute preliminary course? No matter how light the attack may appear to be, the patient should be told of the necessity of remaining in bed until the pulse, respiration and temperature have returned to the normal and remained normal for at least five days. At the onset a hot bath, with care to avoid chilling, followed by a drink of hot lemonade and a Dover’s powder, gave considerable relief to the patient. The value of good nursing cannot be overestimated. The nurse must see that the patient is always well covered and kept warm, not even permitting him to rise in bed to reach for a drink; also the regulation of the temperature of the room should be carefully watched. The main point is to have plenty of fresh air. We have noticed that the patient appeared more comfortable if the air was slightly warmed. Water should be given at regular intervals. Under no consideration should an acute influenza case be allowed to get up to go to the toilet.
