1979 Mori Ōgai and the Modernization of Japanese Culture (Cambridge University Press)
This incident was dramatised in a famous short story, Sakai Jiken, by Mori Ōgai.
The higher echelons of the Army Medical Corps, including writer Mori Ōgai, favored the German view that beriberi, a disease that caused an even heavier death toll than typhoid, was caused by an undiscovered transmittable pathogens (in contrast, British-trained doctors in the navy correctly saw it as a nutritional disorder).
