The frequency and distribution of cases in two epidemics of St. Louis encephalitis in Houston, Texas are compared by age, sex, race, season, duration, geographic area and resources available. The second epidemic was far less severe than the first. The influence of community intervention on the observed differences between the two epidemics is discussed. |
