EPIDEMIC ON WANE
’FLU AMONG TROOPS The mild epidemic of influenza which attacked the central district mobilisation camp, Trentham, is now on the wane and many of the men have gone back to training. After discharge from hospital the men are being put into special huts for two or three days’ rest. Well looked after, they have not been long in getting back to their feet. The epidemic has not been peculiar to the camp, and there have been many cases in Wellington during the past few weeks. Of a mild type common at this time of year, the illness has in the majority of cases not lasted more than a week.
