HC Deb 12 December 1938 vol 342 c1630W
Mr. Groves

asked the Minister of Health whether his medical advisers are aware of any human or animal disease germs which have been caught direct from the atmosphere on to nutritive media and, after cultivation on such media, have produced a specific disease in experimental animals; and, if so, what is the name of the disease or diseases?

Mr. Elliot

I am not aware that any experiment of the kind described by the hon. Member has been carried out.
