Public Health (Prevention of Tuberculosis) Regulations, 1925.—
The Regulations provide, inter alia, that no person suffering from respiratory
tuberculosis who is in an infectious condition, shall be engaged
in any form of dairy work involving the milking of cows, the treatment
of milk or the handling of milk containers. Investigations in
connection with these Regulations have been made in the Borough
but no case calling for action has thus far been discovered.
Chelsea Tuberculosis Scheme.—Table No. 49, subjoined, is prepared
in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Health.
The Table includes:—
(a.) Summary of cases dealt with at the Chelsea Tuberculosis
Dispensary, Brompton Hospital, and
(b.) Special Cases which were accepted for institutional treatment
by the London County Council, but which were not dealt
with by the Chelsea Tuberculosis Dispensary.
Prior to 1929 this Table comprised cases dealt with at the Chelsea
Tuberculosis Dispensary only.
In addition, a further Table, No. 50 (page 75), has been compiled
showing in summary form the condition of all patients whose case records
were in possession of the Tuberculosis Dispensary at the end of 1935,
arranged according to the years in which the patients first came under
Public Medical Treatment of pulmonary and non-pulmonary tuberculosis.
The special cases which were accepted for institutional treatment
by the London County Council, but which were not dealt with by
the Chelsea Tuberculosis Dispensary, are also included in this table.
