be, the cultivable organisms, chiefly streptococci or pheumococci,


are the main cause of the symptoms, lesions and deaths." [38R2, 17]






VACCINE PREPARATION SUMMARY (COLDS AND INFLUENZA)  38R2-19


  "The vaccines were made as needed, preferably not before one year


after preservation, by diluting the dense suspension with sodium


chloride solution to about the density of a broth culture (2


billion organisms per cc) and heating to 75 degrees C for one hour. 


Phenol to make 0.2 percent was added as a preservative. ...


Routinely, 0.3, 0.5, and 1.0 cc were given subcutaneously a week


apart, and then 1.0 cc once every three or four weeks. ...[38R2, p.

VACCINE (COLD AND INFLUENZA), BENEFICIAL RESULTS  38R2-20-1


  Dr. Rosenow exhibits data on nearly 7000 prophylactic and more


than 5000 therapeutic uses of 'cold and influenza' streptococcal


vaccines, in which overall some 90% of patients reportedly


benefitted, most of these "markedly". [38R2-20-1]






GLYCERINE SALT MENSTRUUM  38R2


  --"It was found that heat-killed vaccines prepared from dilutions


of the dense suspensions were much less toxic and more highly


antigenic than those prepared directly from cultures and caused a


more rapid, and more favorable, response ... ." [38R2]
