To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
About sixty percent of the Chinese had active trachoma. In addition, we cared for most of the eye casualties incurred by the Chinese and American troops during the Burma campaign. Hughes: Did the Americans get trachoma as well? Scheie: No, and that was a matter of hygiene. Hughes: Had the Chinese brought trachoma from China? Scheie: Yes. It is interesting that although we had American liaison officers and enlisted personnel living with Chinese combat troops for months at a time, none ever devel...oped the disease. ## They even shared quarters with the Chinese. I was always on guard against spreading trachoma in my own clinic. There was no running water so I had a basin of alcohol in my clinic at all times. After each Chinese patient, I would dip my hands for a few seconds to avoid spreading infections. Hughes: How did you treat trachoma? Scheie: Sulfa drugs. I did attempt a little research project and was given permission to bring infected Chinese patients into the hospital to evaluate the effectiveness of sulfa drugs in treating trachoma.
