| Abstract |
Fifteen persons having infectious hepatitis were found to have eaten raw clams taken from polluted waters in Greenwich Cove, Connecticut. In order to gain a better understanding of the relationship between levels of pollution and the transmission of the virus of the disease, the State department of health investigated the sanitary conditions, hydrographic features, and sources of pollution in the area. |
