Does drinking tuberculin-tested milk destroy some form of inoculation which ordinary milk gives? A reply to this question, asked by Bridlington branch of the National Farmers Union, was given to the "Telegraph & Argus" today by Dr. John Douglas, Medical Officer of Health in Bradford. Dr. Douglas said that if milk was untested it was possible that milk infected with tuberculosis would be drunk by some people and if taken over a period it was quite true that immunisation could result. However, he said :" If milk was infected it would be possible for one pint to contain a dose sufficent to kill a person".
