Title A name given to the resource Malaria Control: CDC Beginnings Description An account of the resource <div class="landing"> <p>In 1942, when the U.S. was mobilizing for the Second World War, the U. S. Public Health Service set up a program to protect the personnel of military bases in the Southeastern states from malaria. This disease had long been rampant in the area, and posed serious threats to the health of the military and civilian populations. The program known as Malaria Control in War Areas (MCWA) was created to carry out the work. The lack of space in Washington due to the war effort allowed the program to base its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, and closer to the work at hand. During the war years, the program was expanded to include the control of other communicable diseases. Because its work was so successful, a new organization was created around the nucleus of MCWA, the Communicable Disease Center (CDC). The date was July 1, 1946.

Title A name given to the resource IMPORTED MALARIA STUDIES - Rearing and Handling of Anopheles Mosquitoes Description An account of the resource Imported Malaria Studies. A joint activity of the National Institute of Health and the Office of Malaria Control in War Areas in the rearing and handling Anopheles mosquitoes . Color TRT 16:00 This film provides instruction for rearing and handling anopheles mosquitoes in an insectary while a woman simultaneously demonstrates all of the actions steps described. Mosquitos in stock cages feed on a rabbit put into the cage so that they feed and can lay eggs. The woman rinses the pan of eggs into a larval pan and provides food of dog biscuit crumbs and yeast when 75% of the eggs are hatched. The film shows a detailed close view of the mosquito life cycle and then shows how adults are lightly blown into the sorting cage. The woman is then seen selecting out adult females from the sorting cage with an aspirator and placing them in small glass jars topped with pieces of cellucotton filled with syrup and water. The narrator believes insectary rearing of mosquitoes for malaria transmission studies illustrates ways in which scientists depend on one another.

Title A name given to the resource DDT AS A LARVACIDE Description An account of the resource Hand mixing and spraying of DDT to kill mosquitos in their breeding areas. Black and White TRT 17:35 U.S. Public Health Service Training Film. This film teaches how to create a DDT spray solution, dissolve it before use, fill a spray pump, maintain the pump, and supply spray to ponds. Specific instructions are given for how to spray and pace over different types of ponds as well as how to hold and move the spray hose, all with respect to wind direction. Walking paths are often animated with white lines and arrows showing the wind’s direction. In many parts of the film, a man is pacing and spraying properly. There is also a visual of a man checking a pond for larvae with a small white dish on a long stick. Signs on sketched columns are used to show important factors: swath width, concentration, wind speed and direction, air pressure, and movement of the sprayer. The film asserts that these actions, carried out faithfully, will control mosquito larvae efficiently and at low cost.

Title A name given to the resource Malaria Control: CDC Beginnings Description An account of the resource <div class="landing"> <p>In 1942, when the U.S. was mobilizing for the Second World War, the U. S. Public Health Service set up a program to protect the personnel of military bases in the Southeastern states from malaria. This disease had long been rampant in the area, and posed serious threats to the health of the military and civilian populations. The program known as Malaria Control in War Areas (MCWA) was created to carry out the work. The lack of space in Washington due to the war effort allowed the program to base its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, and closer to the work at hand. During the war years, the program was expanded to include the control of other communicable diseases. Because its work was so successful, a new organization was created around the nucleus of MCWA, the Communicable Disease Center (CDC). The date was July 1, 1946. This archive chronicles the agency’s early history from 1941-1951, including the contributions of local businessmen and Emory University.
