Extract
A small outbreak of diarrhoea is reported which involved five patients in a mental hospital. An organism showing the characteristics of the paracolon bacillus was isolated from all these cases. Agglutinins to this organism were present to significant titre in the sera of all the patients, suggesting that this race of the paracolon bacillus was the aetiological agent in this outbreak.
