PNEUMONIA PREVENTION &
The end of the winter, far from
bringing a termination to the danger
from pneumonia, in reality
marks the beginning of the season
when this disease becomes an extremely
serious cause of increase of
mortality. This is true particularly
In large cities. In recent years this
Increase has become more and more
VnorlroH o?%/l l? *
?->?u uuu to an iuo more BiriKing
because of the decrease in deaths
from other infectious diseases. Pneumonia
has been aptly termed the
"Captain of the Men of Death displacing
tuberculosis, which for so
long occupied that "bad eminence."
Tho most important problem before
\jikri medical profession at present is
reduction of the death-rate from
pneumonia. Considering the nature
of the disease and the intense strain
which it imposes on the heart, it is
probable that the only hopeful outlook
for any considerable reduction
In pneumonia mortality 1b through
the prevention of the disease. The
prospect of a cure for it, In the popular
sense of that term, according
to The Journal of the American Medical
Association, has grown less as
we have learned more about the
disease. While the colder portion
of the year It Is not dependent entirely
on low temperature. The disease
occurs at all seasons and in all
climates. It does not work its greatest
ravages In the colder climates,
but is rather rare In ' the cold of
high altitudes and is almost never
known to occur within the Arctic circle.
In spite of all their suffering
from cold, Arctic explorers escape )
this danger. Hence we must assume I
that cold acts in conjunction with I
some other factor In the production I
of the disease. Pneumonia is favor- I
ed by lack of sunlight and It occurs I
among those who are much exposed I
to dust or who have to breathe the I
emanations from the lungs of other |
^people. Catarrhal processes affecting I
the air passages prepare the soli for I
the Implantation of the germ of I
pneumonia. It Is particularly a dis- I
ease of city life and crowded living. I

prospects are hopeful for the control
of pneumonia in the future through i
prevention. This is of special importance
to the individual. The
avoidance of penumonla is largely a
question of personal precaution that
prevents the development of the disease
by lessening the predisposition
to it. Men in middle life, particularly
those above 60, must learn during
unsettled weather to avoid \
crowds, especially when fatigued and
when they have been for a number
of hours without eating. Late at
night, when for any reason a meal
has been missed, crowds are danger's.
If this lesson could be gen??.ally
learned there would be less
pneumonia among the well-to-do
y. classes. The principal danger comes
In crowded street cars, which if possible
should be avoided at rush
hours. It needs to be emphasized
that the danger from overcrowding 5
is greatly enhanced by fatigue and
going without food. In a word, the
prevention of pneumonia is now
much clearer than it was. Like all
the other infectious diseases, instead
of being a more or less inevitable
dispensation it has come to be rceognlzed
as due to certain delinite fac- <
tors which can be greatly lessened <
by public and individual hygienic >
regulations.?Greenville Piedmont. ,
