STUDIES ON THE VIRUS OF INFLUENZA [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1936
1. Evidence is presented indicating the presence of a filtrable virus in the nasopharyngeal secretions of individuals suffering from influenza. 2. An attempt to transfer influenza from one human being to another by means of filtered nasopharyngeal washings resulted in the production in the inoculated volunteer of a common cold.
