  • The undoubted occurrence of non-pneumonic or apneumonic influenza naturally suggests the idea that in the pneumonic form we may have been dealing with a process in which bacteria other than those causing the influenza were at work. - Dr. David Riesman, "Influenza - Remarks upon Symptoms, Prevention, and Treatment" In The Medical Clinics of North America, Vol. 64, Issue 6, pp. 903, 904.
