HC Deb 28 July 1911 vol 28 cc1978-9W
Mr. GOLDSTONE

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether, in. view of the fact that the Report of the Commission, on Tuberculosis states definitely that secretions of the cow, such as milk, can communicate tuberculosis to human beings, he will cause inquiry to be made as to whether tuberculosis is not similarly communicable to human beings by means of vaccination with calf lymph?

Mr. BURNS

The matter has already been carefully investigated, and it has been conclusively shown that there is no risk of tuberculosis being communicated to human beings by means of glycerinated calf lymph.
