• Denver is "free" of influenza, says Dr. Sharpley. • Dr. Sharpley: "Not one of the suspected cases reported to me Saturday returned a symptom of Spanish influenza. The cultures and blood tests of each of these suspected cases were taken and not only did not develop influenza, but only a few had grip. However physicians should follow the government request and report all suspected cases and all cases of grip at once to the health board."• Dr. Sharpley: "I am convinced that there is no case of influenza in Denver and what we are now trying to do is to keep it out, and if it does appear here to keep it down."• Other cities in Colorado are not as lucky as Denver. Boulder had three deaths among the men training at University of Colorado. Now a total of 122 cases in Boulder. ; Newspaper article ; 5

• Miss Blanche Kennedy is the first Denver resident to die from influenza. She became ill while visiting Chicago. She died upon her return to Denver. Two physicians confirmed that she was suffering from influenza and not grippe, which has similar symptoms. • Dr. Sharpley is taking steps to prevent the spread of influenza within Denver. He does not believe Miss Kennedy's death will lead to any other influenza deaths. The Kennedy home is under quarantine even though doctors believe Miss Kennedy contracted influenza in Chicago. • Dr. Sharpley convinced moving picture house operators to put the following warning on their screens: "Spanish influenza is conveyed by coughing, sneezing, spitting. Cover your mouth with a handkerchief when you sneeze or cough." It will be shown until the risk of influenza has passed. Dr. Sharpley hopes this message will help people follow the most important sanitary guidelines to prevent the spread of influenza. • Dr. Sharpley: "I do not question the diagnosis of Dr. Weld in the case of Miss Kennedy. There is, however, very likely to be a confusion in diagnosing influenza, as the symptoms of influenza and grippe are very similar and for this reason the government has called upon all physicians to report all grippe cases at once to the local boards of health."• Re-print Surgeon General's rules for the prevention of influenza• There was a culture test done of the cases in Boulder. They were found to be grippe and not influenza. Dr. Sharpley does not believe that influenza has entered Boulder yet. Rumored to be 78 cases of influenza in Colorado Springs. No cases reported at Camp Logan. • Two Coloradan military men stationed elsewhere in the country (PA and VA) died from Spanish influenza. ; Newspaper article ; 3

• A preventative vaccine that has been used with success elsewhere is being readied for complimentary distribution to doctors in Portland. The vaccine is a preventative, not a cure. In Seattle, 60,000 people have been inoculated with the vaccine and none of them are reported to have developed a serious case of influenza. The culture that the vaccine is derived from was brought to Portland by a representative of the health department of the Shipping Board. • The vaccine will be given to physicians only. No city or state labs will inoculate people. • Serum is injected with a hypodermic needle. The cost will most likely equate with that of a trip to the doctor's office.• Statistics of new cases for cities throughout the state are provided. • As of last night, there are 160 patients at the emergency hospital. There are supplies for 300. • The military is in charge of the Auditorium emergency hospital as of today. Captain Theofinn Tharaldsen is in charge. Forty soldiers from the Spruce Division are on duty. • There are urgent calls for nurses. The nurses associated with the Red Cross have "run short."• The ban on public gatherings, like church services, cannot be lifted for at least another two weeks, according to health officials. This is because of the "inroads" that influenza has made into Portland's population. • Names of the recently deceased reported, along with date of death, age, occupation, and address/home town. ; Newspaper article ; 7
