Epidemic Respiratory Disease The pneumonias and other infections of the repiratory tract accompanying influenza and measles

"Epidemic Respiratory Disease" by Eugene L. Opie is a medical study from the early 1900s. It gives a full look at the respiratory illnesses, like pneumonia, that came with influenza and measles during a big epidemic. The study likely contains information on how the disease spread, what it looked like in patients, and what caused it, using research done during a major influenza outbreak amongst soldiers, focusing on the high death rates in army camps like Camp Funston during World War I. A team was formed to study the cases of pneumonia and how they related to influenza outbreaks focusing on the types of bacteria that were most common. The book aims to deeply examine the health issues that came from this worldwide health event.
