One of the two uninoculated women died of plague two days after the boy, she having been in attendance upon him. |
Broth in an uninoculated tube was clear blue and without a pellicle or precipitate. |
At the end of May, he visited 89 houses, in 62 of which both inoculated and uninoculated were living together. |
Then came a period of more than a year, during which the uninoculated had 42 deaths, and the inoculated had one death. |
Eventually they withered and dwindled and were in the end no different from the uninoculated grass. |
If this experiment had failed, the results, judged by the actual mortality among the uninoculated, would have been appalling. |
