Amebic infections in asymptomatic homosexual men, lack of evidence of invasive disease
A survey for enteric infections in 140 asymptomatic homosexual men who attended a community clinic revealed a high prevalence of infection with Entamoeba histolytica (27.1 per cent) and Giardia lamblia (15.7 per cent). In contrast, the prevalence of elevated indirect hemagglutination (IHA) titers (greater than or equal to 1:128), which indicate invasive amebiasis, was low (5.7 per cent). Our findings suggest that only a limited amount of invasive…
Tetanus and diphtheria immunity in an elderly population in Los Angeles County
Fifty-four per cent of 246 subjects attending senior citizen centers (mean age 69), and 29 per cent of 111 convalescent hospital subjects (mean age 82) had protective levels of tetanus antitoxin (greater than or equal to 0.01 units/ml). Age-specific immunity levels were lower for females than males, and generally decreased with age. Forty-eight and one-half per cent of the senior citizen center subjects and 55.9 per cent of the convalescent hospi…

Vaccine failures in the epidemiology and control of measles
Data were employed from confirmed measles case reports and an immunization survey to estimate the apparent effectiveness of measles vaccine in Los Angeles County in 1976. We evaluated the age-specific proportions of our case load arising from persons erroneously thought to possess immunity. Thirty five per cent of our cases claimed to have had prior measles vaccination, and over 60 per cent of these reported having written records. Since communit…
