has come through," Dr. Fuenning
stated.
If there is an epidemic at the
University it will spread before
any newly-shipped vaccine will be
effective, Dr. Fuenning said. "It
takes ten days for a person to
be immunized," he added.
Dr. Fuenning reported that the
Student Health Center has been
receiving cases of the flu "right
along this year" and that all had
"similar symptoms." He added,
however, that none of the cases
before turned, out to be of the As
ian type.
Complete laboratory analysis w21
have to be made before a definite
conclusion can be made regarding
the presence of an Asian flu vims
on the campus.
Should a shipment of flu vaccine
arrive within the next few days.
Dr. Fuenning stated that innocula
tkns would begin immediately.
Students, as this year's procedure
has been, will be vaccinated on a
priority basis.
The papers have stated that the
vaccine supply will be in "'great
abundance" by the middle of Octo
ber, Dr. Fuenning explained.
Dr. Fuenning stated he hoped
that the flu cases on the campus
would be "sporadic" in number.
A Lincoln medical supply com
pany reported over the weekend
that it is now receiving larger
shipments of the flu vaccine.
People throughout the state nave
received almost unlimited innocula
tions from their family doctor or
their local hospital it has been re
ported. However, the state health direc
tor had complained on Sept. 22
that state and local departments
had not been receiving their share
of the vaccine.
A Public Health Service spokes
man said Saturday that the disease
probably has reached epidemic
proportions in Alabama, Illinois,
Michigan, and Oregon, and possibly
has done so in California
He explained that a decision on
whether a disease has reached
the epidemic stages in a state or
local .urea Is fine of judgment on the
part of state health authorities.
