An outbreak of influenza A (resembling A/Victoria/3/75) occurred in 2 geriatric wards in February 1976 and, out of 19 patients, 3 died. Of the patients who were at risk, 30% were affected. Immunization for influenza in the elderly just before the winter is suggested. The procedure is simple and inexpensive. The recommendations of the DHSS (U.K.) for the use of influenza vaccine to practising doctors is, therefore, welcome. The suitable treatment appears to be that of repeated immunization with inactivated vaccine. Amantadine in the elderly population may also be effective, and is worthy of trial.
1976年2月，两家老年病房爆发了甲型流感（类似A/维多利亚/3/75），19名患者中有3人死亡。在有感染风险的患者中，30%受到了影响。建议在冬季来临前对老年人进行流感免疫接种。该程序简单且成本低廉。因此，英国卫生和社会保障部（DHSS）向执业医生推荐使用流感疫苗的建议值得欢迎。合适的治疗方法似乎是用灭活疫苗进行重复免疫。金刚烷胺在老年人群中可能也有效，值得一试。
