“…Alcoholism has been associated with a greater excess mortality in younger individuals3 and in males. 4 Edwards, et al,5 found that after corrections for mortality expectations based on social class, the increase in alcohol-related mortality was greater for more privileged alcoholics. They suggest that this difference might be due to lower-class alcoholics experiencing more frequent interruptions of drinking by incarceration or lack of funds to purchase alcohol.…”

A cluster of nine severe local reactions occurred in a Pennsylvania school district following a mass measles immunization program in February 1981. A case-control study showed that the nine cases had a statistically significant increased history of having received killed measles vaccine previously (p < .001, Fisher's exact test) and a statistically significant higher geometric mean measles antibody titer (p < .01, Student's t test) than controls, suggesting that previous receipt of killed measles vaccine was the underlying cause of these reactions.

“…Reports of local and systemic reactions in recipients of inactivated measles vaccine when subsequently inoculated with live virus vaccine (Buser, 1967;Scott and Bonanno, 1967) or experiencing natural infection (Nader, Horwitz, and Rousseau, 1968) suggest the importance of hypersensitivity reactions in virus infections. In the vaccinated subjects atypical exanthema and swelling and erythema at the site of infection developed over three to eight days.…”

Immune responses in persistent virus infections

Persistent virus infections either show steady and relentless progress-scrapie, visna, or maedi-or persistence with reactivation, as does varicella-zoster. In either case host defence mechanisms are unable to control the infection. To understand the underlying defects it is necessary to know what limits the progress of virus infections under normal conditions. Several factors contribute to host resistance against viruses, and it is becoming apparent that their relative importance varies from one virus infection to another. The main findings will be reviewed in this paper, together with available observations on immune responses to persistent viruses. The simplest way to achieve progressive infections is for the agent responsible to be non-immunogenic, and this, as far as we know, is true of scrapie and related agents. Speculations on why immune responses are ineffective in other persistent virus infections can be offered. Immunopathological reactions to virus infections are also attracting current interest. Since they contribute to the lesions observed in persistent virus infections, they are also briefly considered in this paper.

“…Ich denke dabei an die atypischen Verlaufsformen, die bei Kindern auftreten, die mit inaktiviertem Virus prophylaktisch geimpft worden waren. Die auftretenden Symptome sind denjenigen des Arthus-Phänomens nicht unähnlich [3,7]. Auch könn ten die besonders nach Infektion mit lipidhaltigen Viren auftretenden Hämorrhagien, deren Ursache wenigstens z. T. eine Verbrauchskoagulopathie zu sein scheint [8], durch Immunreaktionen hervorgerufen werden.…”
