[Angina morbidity in an organized collective with a periodic turnover of its personnel].
The article studies the average angina morbidity in the military unit during 9 years which resulted in 48.4% (scarlet fever--0.34%). Laboratory diagnostics is needed to make the estimation of streptococcal infection which has an acute respiratory infectious character during its clinical course. Among the whole number of patients 89.2% have come through this illness for one time, 9% twice, and 4.8%--three times. The dynamics of the angina morbidity had a periodical cycle of 2-3 years which was independent from the morbidity cycle of local civilian population. The authors show a statistic dependency between average morbidity index and the quantity of servicemen in one dormitory, its square and volume per one man. Application of "time before illness" index for 24 months made it possible to disclose the phase character in the development of streptococcal infection among personnel of the same call-up period. The general tendency towards reduction of the morbidity index was accompanied with regular upgrades of the infection after each spring or autumn renovation of personnel.
