Observed symptoms from "The Great Influenza" by John M. Barry, Pt. 1... |
|
...from pages 234-235:
Physicians "routinely misdiagnosed the disease"....
Symptom A: "Patients would writhe from agonizing pain in their joints. Doctors would diagnose dengue, also called 'breakbone fever'.
Symptom B: "Patients would suffer extreme fever and chills, shuddering, shivering, then huddling under blankets. Doctors would diagnose malaria".
Symptom C: "Dr. Henry Berg at New York City's Willard Park Hospital--across the street from William Park's laboratory--worried the patient's complaints of a 'burning pain above the diaphragm' meant cholera. Noted another doctor, 'Many had vomiting; some became tender over the abdomen indicating an intra-abdominal condition'".
This will be continued on Pt. 2.

2. I gave you the reference in the posts. No, there is no link.... |
|
...and yes, I'm trying to follow board protocol by limiting quotes to a certain number of paragraphs.
