He hopes it will confer immunity for at least three months from all types of flu. Last week a test group of doctors and nurses in Los Angeles County General Hospital volunteered for vaccination. About 100,000 persons in selected communities throughout the U. S. have also been vaccinated. The next few weeks may provide a sure test of the vaccine, for the epidemic, already waning in the West, seemed to be moving east at week...
