Abstract
SEVERAL years ago,1 a study was published on the role played by the surgical mask in prevention of respiratory disorders among newborn infants in nurseries of lying-in hospitals. After that report, communications were received questioning whether respiratory disorders constitute a danger in obstetric nurseries. Statements were made to the effect that outbreaks of respiratory disorders, especially the milder forms, are unusual among newborn infants, and that these babies require possibly ten days or more for sensitization to infectious agents, including colds and other respiratory ailments.
