在2个雪貂群体中爆发流感时，有许多局部爆发的人流感的描述。临床症状包括粘液性鼻涕、结膜炎症、打喷嚏、嗜睡和高达105华氏度的体温。这种疾病在个人中的病程大约为7天。恢复期血清的血凝试验似乎表明，当时在人群中出现的甲型流感病毒株是致病微生物。看来感染源很可能是同时被感染的动物服务员。
An outbreak of influenza in 2 ferret colonies at a time when there were many localized outbreaks of human influenza is described. Clinical symptoms included a muco-serous nasal discharge, inflammation of the conjunctiva, sneezing, lethergy, and temperatures up to 105[degree]F. The disease ran its course in individuals in about 7 days. Hemagglutination tests of convalescent sera seemed to indicate that the strain of influenza A virus which occurred in the human population at the time was the causal organism. It appeared probable that the source of the infection was the animal attendants who were infected at the same time.
