The best controlled vaccine experiment in which Leary’s vaccine was used was that reported by Hinton and Kane (10), and was carried out at the Monson State Hospital for epileptics. The hospital had a population of 979 inmates, ranging from 4 years of age to senility; of these 461 were vaccinated and 518 were not. Vaccination was begun on October 6, and three doses of 400, 800 and 1,200 million were given at 24–hour intervals. The first case of influenza developed a few hours after vaccination was completed, but there were no more cases before October 12, when five cases developed. The table shows the result of the work, and that the vaccine failed to protect. Population. No. of % of No. of % of Cases. Cases. Deaths. Deaths.

The reports are of great interest in showing the large number of vaccinations which failed to protect. In the Taunton State Hospital about 800 were vaccinated, and among them there were 81 cases of influenza and 17 deaths from pneumonia, even though the epidemic was on the wane when vaccinations were begun. In the Gardner State Colony 834 were vaccinated after the peak of the epidemic had passed. This number included all but 15 of the inmates who had not contracted influenza up to that time. Out of this group, 62 vaccinated individuals developed the disease. At the Massachusetts School for Feeble-Minded 457 inmates were selected for vaccination and controls. Of the 234 vaccinated, 56 developed influenza. Of the 223 unvaccinated, 185 developed influenza, with 16 pneumonias and 12 deaths. The vaccinated group, however, were a more vigorous group of individuals to begin with, and represented a higher mental grade than the unvaccinated group, so that the evidence was considered of questionable value. At the Wrentham State School the influenza epidemic was well under way before vaccinations were begun, and hence the susceptible individuals were in a large part either affected or infected with the disease. Of 1,198 unvaccinated persons, 758 developed influenza, giving a morbidity rate of 63 per cent. Of 128 vaccinated, 13 developed influenza and 1 died. Physicians in this institution believe that the vaccinated were not as ill as the unvaccinated patients.
