title: [Morbidity from acute respiratory infections in a small community in La Habana City].
abstract: A survey was made on morbidity due to acute respiratory infections in a circumscription of the Cristobal Labra Polyclinic, from January 17 to March 2, 1987, in order to contribute some clarifications about such an important health-disease problem. The sample was made up of 75 families representing 297 inhabitants. Questioning included all family members that in the 14 days previous to the visit referred to have or to have had symptoms of acute respiratory infections. The so-called real morbidity index was reached.
