Feathered Friends Carry
Sleeping Sickness Virus
By DKI.OS SMITH
1'IM Science Kditor
NKW YORK HPI '-Scientific
bird watchers have caught some
of our little feathered Iriends the
robin, the bluebird, the flicker,
etc. giving aid and comfort to
Ihe viruses which cause an ex
tremely uncomfortable and often
fatal disease of people and horses.
Ihe case against the birds is
air-tight. The viruses have been
found in their blood. But Ihey are
not the main accomplices of the
criminals. The main accomplices
seem to he two kinds of mos
quitoes. One kind carries the
viruses from bird to bird, and the
other kind carries them from
birds to people and horses or
at least the evidence so indicates.
PRIME MYSTERY
The viruses are those . which
cause equine encephalitis and the
scientific detective work was done
by Massachusetts slate public
health scientists under the di
rection of Dr. Roy F. Feemster
of the Harvard School of Public
Health. H is one of the clearest
demonstrations that science is
going to be strained to deal el
fectivcly against the ways some
disease causing viruses have :j(
getting to people (and in this
case, to horses !
A person with equine encepha
litis doesn't give it to another per
son nor to a horse; nor does a
horse give it to another horse nor
to a person. Then how do the
viruses gel around among people
and horses? That has been a
prime mystery for years. Now the
scientists-detectives have come up
and, with what looks like Ihe full and
correct answer.
OUTBREAKS SPORADIC
Not all the evidence is conclu
sive but it explains most of the
known peculiarities of equine en
cephalitis. The outbreaks are spo
radic, occur in summer, and
sometimes there are many years
between them. Massachusetts has
had several over the past two
decades, all of (hem in the vicin
ity of swampy areas.
In a detailed report of their
years-long detective work, Feem
ster and his associates pointed out
that in summer drought years
there have been no outbreaks of
equine encephalitis.. The out
breaks have come in years when
spring and early summer rains
were abundant.
Therelore, it was reasoned that
rains filled up the swamps which
then became fine breeding
grounds and lipped the mosquito
population. This population
reached high numbers at the lime
newly hatched birds were in their
nests, defenseless against mosqui
toes. So the viruses were spread
widely among birds, and then by
other mosquitoes who sucked
the virus crop from their blood
to people and horses.

The raid came after a demand
by Ihe state prosecutor for infor

Park section. Linemen tried lo
(race Ihe calls by making a pole-by-pole
check in Ihe area, bu( had
no luck. Police also had received
a number of crank calls.

gone underground." said a phone
company detective. "Those boys
would all three make first class
electronic engineers."

is 17, designed a device that could
