Bordoni-Uffreduzzi gives the following statistics with reference to 
the inoculations practised at the Pasteur Institute in Turin during 
the years 1886 to 1891: 81 persons were inoculated by the method 
first proposed by Pasteur, with a mortality of 2.46 per cent; 925 
persons were subsequently inoculated by the same method, but with 
larger doses of virus, with a mortality of 1.72 per cent. Finally, 338 
persons were inoculated with still larger doses, with a mortality of 
0.29 per cent. 
At the Pasteur Institute in Palermo the number of persons inocu- 
lated in the four years prior to 1891 was 662, with a mortality among 
the inoculated of 0.6 per cent. In Bologna (1890) 210 persons bitten 
by dogs undoubtedly mad were inoculated, with a mortality of 0.47 
per cent. 
Tn the Pasteur Institute at Naples 810 persons were treated during 
the years 1886 to 1892, with a mortality of 0.86 per cent. 
During the year 1891, 1,564 persons were inoculated at the Pas- 
teur Institute in Paris, with a total mortality of 0.57 per cent. In 
394 of these cases the animal which inflicted the bite was proved to 
be rabid by experimental inoculations. 
Horsely (1889) has made a comparison of the results obtained by 
the “intensive treatment” as compared with thcse by the treatment 
first employed, and says:
