TABLE V.
The following Table marked (B) has been prepared
by me under an instruction of the Local Government
Board.
NOTES ON TABLE B.
(See also Notes on back of Table A.)
Note 1. The present Table B is concerned with population, births, and sickness
(not with mortality) in the Sanitary district or division to
which the table relates.
2. As stated in the heading of Col. (a), Public Institutions should be
regarded as separate localities, and the new cases of sickness in
them should be separately recorded. Workhouses, Hospitals, Infirmaries,
Asylums, and other establishments into which numbers
of people, and especially of sick people, are received, are Public
Institutions for the purpose of these statistics.
3. Comments on any unequal incidence of notifiable disease upon the
several localities, and considerations as to the local incidence of
consumption and other prevalent diseases, should be made in the text
of the Report.
