About This Item
Danysz also brought with him two cultures of Ratin and Azoa which were said to kill rats during the bubonic plague. Both were also tested in Australia for their efficacy, but proved to be of little use' ('Encyclopedia of Australian Science', online). This report deals primarily with the causes of the removal to hospital from Broughton Island of both Drs Danysz and Tidswell (it proved not to be related to the virus), and the desire to dampen the enthusiasm of the press ('there is confusion between what is to be done and the little that has been done'.
