Excerpt from The Administrative Control of Tuberculosis: Being the Harben Lectures Delivered in 1898 Before the Royal Institute of Public Health

Two of these conclusions, which I quote from the report of the Royal Commission of 1890, will suffice to justify the prominence which is given, for the purposes of these lectures, to the question of food-supplies in relation to human tuberculosis. One runs as follows: Any person who takes tuberculous matter into the body as food incurs risk of acquirmg tuberculous disease. The other is: No doubt the largest part of the tuberculosis which man obtains through his food is by means of milk containing tuberculous matter. Taking these conclusions as a sort of text, I am driven at once to divide my subject into two parts. One deals With the influence of meat, the other with that of milk, in the production of human tuberculosis.
