Tuberculosis In Children

It is evident that the time has arrived when pediatricians in this country should have expert advice on the use of BCG in the control of tuberculosis in children. Other parts of the world are now confronted with an increase in this disease. They are establishing programs to resist this infection, and their respect for the value of BCG is attested to by the fact that its use forms a major part of such programs. Physicians returning to America from these countries are advising us to accept this additional technic in our attempt to eradicate tuberculosis. This symposium is the result of many requests from our members. In order to obtain divergent viewpoints, four speakers have been chosen whose opinions each of us respects but who have come to different conclusions. Dr. J. A. Myers is the first speaker. He has spent his professional life in combatting tuberculosis in children and young adults. Following him, Dr. Sol Roy Rosenthal will speak. He is Director of the Tice Laboratories affiliated with the University of Illinois. This institution is one of the main distributors of BCG in this country. The next speaker is Dr. Milton Levine, Chief Consultant on BCG vaccination to the New York State Health Department. The concluding paper on the symposium will be given by Dr. Robert Anderson, Chief Medical Director, Division of Tuberculosis, of the U. S. Public Health Service.
