It has been left to recent investigators to prove the important role played by animals in the causation and transmission of die ease. Dr Louis Lambon, lecturing at the Institute of Public Health, Russell-square,
showed that tropics] disease hitherto sup
posed to be due to heat were in reality caused by parasites,
Parasites were frequently carried by Becoming adherent to the fair of animals, by being ingested and then deposited, or by getting into the blood of animals or inssate, which on biting man deposited the parasites in his blood.
Flios are the great scourge, being the bearers of the germe of almost every diacase, including cholers, enteric, and anthrax. Dr Laubon showed how plague was conveyed from the mat by means of rat fans, which take up their quarters on the dousentla cat and dog, bringing the plague gerat with them.
De Lambon has been at work during the past few weeks investigating the part takan by the ordinary domestic animals, auch, na 1376 the cat and dog, in transmitting disease.
