REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH
1936]
The Board of Health
ยท
To the Citizens of Swampscott:
The Board of Health herewith submits its report for the year ending December 31, 1936, together with those of its various officers:
During the first ten months of this year only 351 cases of com- municable diseases had been reported, making a total of 47 cases less than reported during the same period a year ago. Beginning in November there was a steady increase in the number of Chicken Pox, Measles, Mumps and Whooping Cough cases with the result that 222 more cases have been reported than during 1935. The in- crease, however, has not been confined to this community alone, but has been experienced in all surrounding cities and towns and throughout this and other States as well.
One case of adult diphtheria has been reported, although re- peated examinations of nose and throat cultures were found to be negative.
No cases of anterior poliomyelitis (infantile paralysis) or ty- phoid fever have been reported this year.
It is interesting to note that during the year 1935, 16 of the 21 cases of scarlet fever reported during that year occurred during the first six months and that 40 of the 43 cases reported this year oc- curred during the same period. Three of the cases reported this year were those of children who had been previously reported as having had the disease.
Three new cases of pulmonary tuberculosis and one of tuberculo- sis of the spine have been reported this year. One patient has been discharged and three admitted to Essex Sanatorium. There are four cases at the present time needing hospital care.
Fifty-nine citizens and eleven non-residents have been bitten by dogs the past year. Examination of the heads of three dogs showed that they were afflicted with rabies. As a result it was necessary to provide anti-rabic treatment for nineteen persons who had been in contact with or been bitten by the rabid dogs, the expense of their treatment being $523 for medical treatment and $143.70 for vaccine. The town, however, is reimbursed for this expense by the County Commissioners from the money received for dog licenses.
Two hundred seventy-one pupils in the seventh, ninth and eleventh grades of the parochial and public schools have been given the Von Pirquet test for tuberculosis under the supervision of Dr. Sartwell of Essex Sanatorium. Thirty-four of those tested showed a positive reaction and were accordingly X-rayed.
Dental and pre-school examinations have been held as usual.
Five free clinics were held for the purpose of giving our citizens an opportunity to have their dogs immunized against rabies and thereby protect not only the animals but themselves and others from the disease. As usual, a very small percentage of dog owners took advantage of the opportunity. Each year it is necessary for us to recommend the restraint of all dogs in order to protect our citizens from being bitten by dogs that have not been immunized and are capable of contracting and carrying the disease. Such measures are distasteful to dog owners, but there is nothing else for us to do un- der the circumstances. Such measures would not be necessary if all owners would co-operate with this department by having their dogs immunized. Nothing can save an animal or person once they have contracted the disease.
