title: [The efficacy of Polirem in the prevention of influenza in servicemen].

A considerable reduction of morbidity rate (alpha < 0.001) and the lowering of medical cases were found out in cadets who were given Polirem. There were no complications in this group of cadets. A considerable reduction of average durability of sickness was marked in this group. The authors recommend Polirem administration for coping epidemic outbreaks of influenza in military contingency.
