CONTROL OF COMMON RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS

CONTROL OF COMMON RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS To say that respiratory infections are responsible for more loss of time from industry than any other single group of disorders is only to repeat a well known statement. This subject has been discussed on many occasions, and at the Third Annual Congress on Industrial Health, which was held by this group in 1941, it was the topic of a most enlightened symposium.1 Such topics as the incidence and economics of acute respiratory infections, the role of the physician in the control of respiratory infections and air conditioning were discussed. Today I propose to discuss some of the methods which are available for the prevention and control of these infections. While it will be admitted at once that there is no completely effective method for their prevention and control, at least more is known today about certain aspects of the problem than was the case some years ago.

Abstract

To say that respiratory infections are responsible for more loss of time from industry than any other single group of disorders is only to repeat a well known statement. This subject has been discussed on many occasions, and at the Third Annual Congress on Industrial Health, which was held by this group in 1941, it was the topic of a most enlightened symposium.1 Such topics as the incidence and economics of acute respiratory infections, the role of the physician in the control of respiratory infections and air conditioning were discussed. Today I propose to discuss some of the methods which are available for the prevention and control of these infections. While it will be admitted at once that there is no completely effective method for their prevention and control, at least more is known today about certain aspects of the problem than was the case some years ago.
