'INFLUENZA CAUSE OF
TUBERCULOSIS INCREASE
Dr. S. J. McGraw of El Dotodo Makes
Trank Statement to Fight Disease
With Seal Funds.
Dr. S. J. McCraw of El Dorado calls
attention to the appalling effects of
Spanish influenza in increasing tuber
culosis. Dr. McGraw says:
“As for tuberculosis, we are just
now beginning to see what a bounti
ful harvest the epidemic left us. The
I influenza bacillus was very much at
! home In preparing seedbeds for ths
great white plague.
“We now- have many cases of active
tuberculosis which before the epi
demic were latent or did not exist.
In either case we have them on our
hands and their proper diagnosis and
management, while it may yet os
time, is one of our greatest responsi
bilities.
“Up to the present £he medlical
profession as a whole has been re
luctant in pronouncing a case tubers
tiilar until the germ could be dem
onstrated ir. the sputum; then, al
most half the patient's fchanee of
recovery is gone, for the tubercle
bacillus ia not present in the sputum
until there is an acttial breaking
down of lung tissue and the case is
moderately advanced.”
In order to meet the tuberculosis
situation which has been accentuat
ed by the epidemic the Arkansas Pub
lic Health Association is putting on
its Red Cross Christmas Seal sale,
* per cent of which will be used to
it tuberculo.sis in Arkansas.
Tuberculosis kills producers—
chiefly men antf women between the
ages of 16 and 45.
Tuberculosis workers—active men
and women in the homes, the office
and the shop.
Tuberculosis menaces every com
munity, every home and every indi
vidual, and yet tuberculosis is cur
able and preventable.
