HC Deb 25 February 1926 vol 192 c698
57. Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLE

asked the Minister of Health if he has evidence that bovine tuberculosis is communicable to man by the consumption of tuberculous milk?

Sir K. WOOD

Yes, Sir. I am advised that the positive conclusions of the Royal Commission on Tuberculosis on this subject have been confirmed by the subsequent work of many investigators, at home and abroad.

Mr. ERSKINE

Is not the moral to be drawn that people should drink orange juice, and not milk?

Sir K. WOOD

I think the answer contains its own moral.
