VIRUS PNEUMONIA
' A victim of pneumonia is usu
ally pictured as a person with a
high fever, gasping for breath,
perhaps silent
ly blue in the
face and ex
hibiting great
p r o s t r ation.
That picture is
accurate
enough in a
severe case of
lobar pneumo
n i a, although
cases of lesser
severity pro
duce lesser
symptoms.
ui. drariv
virus pneu-
monia is pneumonia in its full
est sense but it differs in many
respects from the bacteria
caused variety known either as
lobar pneumonia or broncho
pneumonia. The distinction be
tween the latter two is that in
lobar pneumonia, a whole sec
tion or lobe of the lung is af
fected while the remainder of the
lungs are not involved. In broncho-pneumonia,
the process is
"patchy" and may involve sev
. eral different areas of the lung
at the terminations of the bron
chial tubes.
Because virus pneumonia does
not follow the usual pattern
either as to symptoms or effects
it is also called atypical pneu
monia, meaning not typical.
Virus pneumonia invariably
follows a preliminary respirato
ry infection conforming to the
"flu" type if it develops at all.
The initial "flu" symptoms may
vary from those common to CRI
(the common cold) accompanied
by malaise (indisposition fa
tigue lethargy lack of the
sense of well-being), to feverish
ness, pains in the back and ex
tremities, headache, racking
cough and prostration.
Virus pneumonia may be sus
pected when one has CHI from
which he docs not readily re
cover. The "cold which hangs
on." is another way of express
ing it. (It must be remembered
that lobar pneumonia may also
conform to this pattern, occa-
sionally). Severe virus pneumo
nia may produce symptoms of
ordinary pneumonia in the first
few days, but the signs that the
doctor finds upon examination
are not those of ordinary pneu
monia. X-ray examination is usually
necessary to establish the diag
nosis. It is often surprising how
much involvement of the lungs
the x-ray will reveal, when the
ordinary signs and symptoms are
comparatively slight. Thus, it is
not unusual for a person to walk
around, day after day, under the
impression that he is merely
having a little difficulty in
"throwing off a cold," to find
upon x-ray examination that he
has an extensive pneumonia.
This has happened to victims
, of lobar pneumonia as well, but
it must be conceded that they are
much sicker persons throughout.
Although cough and respirato
ry irritation in general are com
mon to virus pneumonia, these
are usually secondary in annoy
ance to tiie "washed-out" feeling
the utter lack of energy and
disinclination to effort which
characterizes most cases. In or
dinary pneumonia, fever, cough
and respiratory difficulty are
more prominent, usually confin
ing the victim to bed on his own

decision.
It is difficult to distinguish be
tween virus pneumonia, parrot
fever, "Q" fever, influenza and
other diseases caused by viruses.
It is probable that many cases of
virus pneumonia are never iden
tified as such particularly the
milder cases.
Virus pneumonia is different
also in that the drugs which or
dinarily make short work of bacteria-caused
pneumonia, are in
effective in the virus type. The
true nature of the infection often
is revealed by the lack, of re
sponse to treatment.
Virus pneumonia, barring com
plications, is a self-limiting dis
ease with a very low mortality
rate. Recently, reports that some
of the newer antibiotic drugs
such as Chloromycetin have been
effective in this disease, have
stirred new hopes in treatment.
Carriers those who harbor
the virus in their respiratory ap
paratus without developing the
disease appear to be just as in
strumental in spreading the dis
ease as the victims themselves.
Actually, close contact with vic
tims of the disease does not seem
to result in as much cross-infection
as might be expected. I am
unable to explain this peculiar
ity at the present time, but it
could be that previous infection
with the virus confers a lasting
immunity to persons who other
wise would be susceptible.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Alarmed
I dread company, thinking makes
Dy Dead nurt, my Drain swims, niy
vfslnn hlurK. T am rienressed and
alarmed about' myself. Are these aifins
that I am losing my mind, or that J
will have a nervoua breakdown?
(Alarmed)
Answer Wo. Any such train o
symptoms calls tor a complete physf
cal examination, followed by special
examinations and interviews bearing
upon nervous and mental investiga
tions. A purely physical condition
may account for the entire com
plaint. Go to a physician now and
save yoursell endless and unnecessary
worry.
Tonsils and Arthritis
I am 52 and have had arthritis for
7 years and can hardly walk. My
tonsils are badly infected but I know
of cases where removal of tonsils did
no good. 1 dread the thought of what
might be a useless operation. What
can I do? (R. L. R.l
Answer I know of a lot more cases
where removal of tonsils had no ap
preciable effect on arthritis. The re
moval of '-foci of Infection." either In
tonsils or elsewhere falls too often to
result in improvement. If the 'focus
oi imection is not tne cause of tne
arthritis, naturally no relief will fol
low its removal. Thousands of people
have "foci of Infection" without hav
ing arthritis. Tonsils mdy be removeo
by a series of electro-coagulation
treatments. These are painless and
bloodless, but the entire process takes
time.
