Chicken Pox
Dr. A. A. Weech, of the Johns Hopkins University, has found that the serum taken from the blood of those who have recovered from chicken pox, if injected into susceptible children, seems to prevent their catching the disease. Nine infants, who had been exposed to the disease, were given injections of the serum from one to six days after exposure. Eight of them did not contract the disease.
