俄克拉荷马州医学协会与俄克拉荷马医学：1916 - 1925年 - Suppr

J Okla State Med Assoc. 2005 Jun;98(6):228-36.

Despite uncertain economic times, the Oklahoma State Association grew steadily in the decade from 1916-1925, passing the 1500 membership mark for the first time and establishing itself as the premier medical organization in the state. While the world fought its first great war and suffered an influenza pandemic, Oklahoma physicians battled diseases for which there were no immunizations or cures, and OSMA struggled to establish its identity in the arena of medical legislation.

尽管经济形势不稳定，但俄克拉荷马州医学协会在1916年至1925年的十年间稳步发展，首次突破了1500名会员的大关，并确立了其作为该州首要医学组织的地位。当世界正在进行第一次世界大战并遭受流感大流行时，俄克拉荷马州的医生们与那些没有疫苗或治疗方法的疾病作斗争，而俄克拉荷马州医学协会则努力在医疗立法领域确立自己的身份。
