English to French Medical Medical (general)

Take a look at the Johns Hopkins Family Health Book ("America's #1 Medical Authority"), and look under
"M y c o p l a s m a". You'll find nothing there! Now look in the glossary of the same 1,658-page monster book for that same subject. You'll find nothing!
Turn to the index, look under "B" and try to find some reference to "brucellosis". There's no listing. Why is that? Well, that term, too, began to fall out of favour, in terms of certain persons and institutions that could be expected to know and use the word, some time after the US government began using brucellosis in biological
weapons, such as those it used against China and North Korea during the Korean War. (Among the most honest and best-researched accounts of the US use of bioweapons in the Korean War is The United States and Biological Warfare by Stephen Endicott and Edward Hagerman, published by Indiana University Press, 1998.) After the war in Korea, the research continued but focused upon a derivative of the Brucella abortus nucleic acid particle, now known as one of the species of Mycoplasma.
