REPORT OF BOARD OF HEALTH
During the past year the condition regarding Health in the Town has been remarkably good. There have been no serious contagious diseases of any great number and those reported were properly cared for.
Diseases reported were as follows:
Mumps
14
Chicken Pox
9
Measles 15
German Measles
1
Scarlet Fever
3
Anterior Poliomylitis
1
Dog Bites
16
This list though representative is by no means complete, because of the laxity of certain physicians and the negligence of some parents in reporting cases. So we wish to call to the atten- tion of the Public the Law requiring that certain diseases be re- ported under penalty of fine. Therefore it is the duty of everyone to acquaint himself with the reportable diseases.
It is gratifying to note that we did not have a single case of diphtheria reported in Town last year, but the State Board of Health report says that a great number of diphtheria cases were reported through-out the State, with some deaths. So the local board of health feels that the parents of children should be warned again to have their children immunized. Records and statistics reveal that not a single death from the disease has occurred when the child has been inoculated. Therefore see to it that your child is inoculated for diphtheria either by your family physician or bring your child to the diphtheria clinic which will be held in
87
April of this year. Children from six months to 10 years of age inclusive are eligible and parents are urged to take advantage of this free service.
Two homes where state children are boarding were inspected in regards to the sanitary conditions and environment, and both were found to be in accord with the requirements of the State Board of Health.
The Diphtheria Clinic was held at the Town Hall in April and May of this year, under the direction and cooperation of the Board of Health, and assisted by Mrs. Lillian Hewitt, School Nurse, I gave three inoculations, three weeks apart, of Diphtheria Toxoid, to eighty-two children; the results were very satisfactory.
