Exposure to Cold and Dampness Won't Cause Illness Claims
Dr William Brady argues against the belief that cold damp exposure causes sickness. He recalls publishing an earlier health column and notes wartime changes in medical practice. He criticizes blanket rules during infantile paralysis scares that deter children from swimming and outdoor activity.
Exposure and illness claims challenged by experienced observers
The author argues that repeated reports from sailors, soldiers, hunters, and others show no link between exposure to cold or wet and illness like infantile paralysis. He criticizes the idea of bodily hardening or resistance as unfounded, stating no proof exists for these concepts and that they are old-time explanations to quiet doubt.
