Pellagra Declared Dietary, Not Contagious, Says Dr Carrick
Dr Carrick cites Osler's 1907 claim that Pellagra never appeared in the United States and notes later findings of its prevalence and mortality. He argues Pellagra is due to diet or a toxic substance, not contagion, and that balanced army diets prevent the disease. He asserts all observed cases began before enlistment and not in service.
