title: [The prevention of intestinal anthroponoses among military personnel].
abstract: In the 40th Army the hepatitis A and typhoid morbidity in enlisted personnel of the 1st year service period was 2.5 times higher than in enlisted personnel of the 2nd year service period. The greatest number of these sick cases took place in autumn and winter periods. The seasonal up-grade of shigellosis and acute intestinal infections of non-dysenteric etiology had its beginning in April-May and ended in November-January. Some garrisons had achieved a considerable efficiency in prophylaxis of hepatitis A by 2-3 ml immunoglobulin injections 2 months before the expected up-grade (morbidity reduction by 3-4 times). The experience has shown that the struggle against intestinal anthroponoses had to be executed using a complex approach to its prophylaxis. This work must be done not only by physicians, but also by the representatives of the rear service.
