Abstract
|
|
|
An attempt was made to isolate the causative agent from a group of febrile patients in a construction camp, where the endemic was occurred in a fashion of explosive, and it seemed to be a salmonellosis on the clinical symptoms.
Direct rectal swabs and´ food samples were taken repeatedly from febrile patients, and only the rectal swabs from the healthy persons to obtain the bacteriological specimens. Sera were also obtained from both healthy persons and febrile patients.
Water of glen which penetrates through the camp could be worthy of notice as an infectious source, because one chronic typhoid carrier was found in a slum which was located on a steep ascent just outside of the camp. Typhoid bacilli was isolated from the specimens of 17 patients (58.8%) out of 29 febrile patients, and from 5 out of 92 healthy persons.
Widal agglutinin rise was so delayed that it was found not so worthy of examination in the situation of the early management of the patients for prevention of the endemic.
