Flu Again Ravages London.

Influenza has broken out again - in London, making a third wave in less' than a year. The cases that are complicated by pneumonia, tend to follow the usual course common in the years before the war. This is in contrast with the rapidly fatal type characterizing the summer and autumn epidemics. and suggests a distinct decrease in virulence. Of those attacked previously very few have been again infected. Some immunity seems to have been established, for in most easels of reinfection there ate only vague rheumatic pains and malaise lasting a few d'hys.
