Doc Tales
July 12, 2017 —
Thanks to everyone who heeded my call last week for new Doc Tales submissions. I received a wide variety and some made me chuckle. So, keep 'em coming -- if you overhear something funny or know a quote that inspires you send it in (snelson@aasv.org).
This week's Doc Tales was offered up by Dr. Kelly Lager: Diagnosis of hog cholera on the basis of clinical observation had come to be regarded as an art as well as a science, as illustrated by the words of S. H. McNutt of the University of Wisconsin, speaking to a symposium on hog cholera in Minneapolis in 1961: ". . . the only typical thing about hog cholera is that it is always atypical. In the diagnosis of hog cholera one employs common sense, the least common of the senses . . .'"
