I.R. Lang

Abstract

Fifty-nine cases of measles with bronchopneumonia as a complication were treated with either doxycycline or ampicillin. The differences in the duration of pyrexia and consolidation are discussed and various conclusions drawn. The results did not correspond with sensitivity tests conducted on swabs taken on admission.
