† Primary notifications of persons notified during life to be suffering from tuberculosis.
From the above table it will be seen that the disease commonly attacks people at the period of
their maximum value to the home, the family and the nation. Apart from causing deaths of
persons in the prime of life, it handicaps many by reducing their working capacity for several years
before death.

Table: The following table shows the number of notifications of pulmonary and non-pulmonary tuberculosis received since 1920, together with the number of deaths and death-rates in each year.
