    Institution National Institutes of Health (U.S.)
    Abstract The collection consists of unstructured interviews conducted by Edward Shorter in preparation for his book The Health Century (1987). Interviewees include industry representatives from companies such as Merck, Pfizer, and Bristol-Myers, and NIH institute leaders. The NIH interviewees explore the early history of NIH and its predecessors the Hygienic Laboratory and Bureau of Biologics; early leaders at NIH, their personalities, and leadership qualities; scientific controversies such as the Cutter incident and SV40 and their impact on NIH; changing nature of scientific research at NIH; recruiting and training young scientists; important contemporary research such as AIDS and cancer drugs. The corporate interviewees explore more technical aspects of drug production; the history and importance of specific drugs to their corporations; the nature of risk taking and leadership needed to support basic research in a corporate environment; how success and failures shape the drug industry; regulatory and patent environments; recruiting and training young scientists. Shorter's book explores the incredible progress of medical science since 1945 with the U.S. leading the advance. The book contends that America's world predominance in medical research was the result of a unique cooperative synergy between academic medicine, private sector research, and the NIH. At the time, Shorter was part of the faculty at the University of Toronto. The book project was part of a larger NIH centennial project, the records of which HMD possesses in a separate collection.

    Abstract Finding a link between COVID-19 and subsequent psychiatric symptoms has resulted in renewed interest in the psychiatric sequelae of pandemics. The first such instance was apparently the encephalitis lethargica pandemic which arose around the time of the First World War, moving in the shadow of a repiratory virus pandemic. The epidemic of encephalitis lethargica (EL), or Von Economo's Disease, in the years 1917-27 was the first pandemic involving the central nervous system. It moved in some places in parallel with the Great Flu Pandemic but does not seem to have been caused by it. Unlike the coronavirus, pandemic EL affected children heavily, leading often to bizarre changes in character and personality. It often left sequelae lasting for decades in the form of postencephalitic Parkinsonism (PEP). Unlike the coronavirus, it had a high mortality of around 20 percent. Although encephalitis lethargica involved a number of systems, psychiatric morbidity was most prominent and entailed severe depression, mania, catatonia and psychosis. It ended without therapeutic or public-health measures; today, sporadic cases of EL continue to be reported. The hypothesis is that we can derive from the EL psychiatric pandemic certain lessons that might be useful in studying tardive COVID symptoms today.
