To-day we owe oiu- immunity from yellow fever to these heroes of medicine. The last case of yellow fever contracted on the Isthmus of Panama was in 1905 — nearly twelve years ago ! Never agaia can there be a great epidemic of yellow fever in the United States. Those of you who have read Weir Mitchell's "Red City" will appreciate what a wonderful triumph this is for Medical Research. The YeUow-Fever Commission of the Rocke- feller Foundation has just returned from a care- ful investigation of th...e various foci of iafection in South America. Guayaquil is the principal source of infection, with one or two minor possi- 73 MEDICAL RESEARCH A?JD HUMAN WELFARE ble foci. Yellow fever is reported to exist in Mexico and on the west coast of Africa. It be- hooves us immediately to bestir ourselves, for otherwise the opening of the Panama Canal — a veritable Pandora's box — may easily result in serious epidemics of yellow fever in countries in which it is as yet unknown. A systematic campaign against the mosquito and for the adoption of the sanitary measures found to be so successful on the Isthmus may enable us to banish yeUow fever from the whole world.
