FOOD POISONING.
Section 7 of the London County Council (General Powers)
Act, 1932, provides that every registered medical practitioner
shall send to the Medical Officer of Health a notification for every
case, or suspected case, of Food Poisoning.
Number of cases notified during 1932 10
FOOT CLINIC.
The total number of sessions per week is as it was last year,
viz., 9, but on the 16th August this year a new clinic was opened
in Bermondsey Town Hall for two sessions a week and the number
of sessions at Rotherhithe was reduced by two. In spite of the
fact that the fee for treatment is now 1/- instead of 6d., there has
been no falling off in the number of attendances which were
10,145 as against 9,021 last year.
Quite a large number of patients now attend regularly for
treatment every three or four weeks, and there is no doubt that
these clinics render a very valuable service in this borough.
