Description
Manson sympathises over Ross being put on special duty to investigate cholera and says that if Ross does not press on with malaria the kudos will be gained by the French and Italians. He is dubious about psorosperms being part of the malaria cycle and recommends Ross 'to fix and section malarialised mosquitoes'. He discusses a case of tertian fever in University College Hospital and he is trying to breed his own colony of mosquitoes.
