I've had a rotten cold this week, have been sneezing away like the folks in this great newsreel story for days... What a curse, the common cold! But, with the aid of over 6,000 human guinea-pigs, the Ministry of Health's been carrying on a relentless hunt for the cure. Volunteers live in comfortable quarters and complete isolation at a hospital near Salisbury. Doctors on the job have been trying to catch the elusive germ, for over 13 years. Now, at-last, it's believed that Doctors Andrewes and Tyrrell have success almost in sight. CU man sneezing. CU same (4). LS drive of Havard Hospital. CU sign 'Havard' Hospital.
