Abstract
The All-Union Influenza Committee concluded that the anti-virus proposed by the Mechnikov Institute had been shown to reduce the duration of influenza illness and the number of complications, particularly the most severe (influenza pneumonia and pleurisy). It has been shown to reduce the duration of influenza and to reduce the number of complications, especially the most severe ones (influenza pneumonia and pleurisy).
