Epidemic of epidemic encephalitis. Duzar, Balo (Jahrb. f. Kingerheilk., Bd. 99)
The authors describe an illness that spread in the breast department of a pediatric clinic in Budapest. The first child was admitted on the 4th day of the illness, which began at once with fever, vomiting, and diarrhea; unconsciousness, shortness of breath, and intestinal phenomena led at first to assume acute food intoxication. After 4 days, a child lying in an adjoining room became ill, 2 days later the next, and then, at intervals of 2 to 3 days, the infection spread throughout the ward, infecting 11 children.
