Helen King's monograph does not support this article
[edit]The monograph on the disease of virgins by Helen King does not support the assertion that chlorosis is equivalent to hyperchromic anemia. The conclusion Helen King comes to in her monograph is that we cannot know - we cannot know because the test for hyperchromic anemia is a blood test, and you can't do blood tests on long-dead people. It might be most intellectually honest to remove the citation of Helen King's monograph from this article if the article is going to editorially assert a conclusion that is not supported. --216.152.101.229 (talk) 12:40, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
