The next Table shows the number of premises disinfected
after Measles in each sub-district for each month of the year.
The total number of premises disinfected was 1,006 (262 in
Clapham, 64 in Putney, 165 in Streatham, 118 in Tooting, and
397 in Wandsworth), compared with 2,638 in 1911, 418 in 1910,
and 1,012 in 1909.
The greatest number of disinfections was carried out in
December, this being due to outbreaks in Wandsworth. The
greatest number of cases occurred in June, November and December.
In the other months of the year the number of disinfections
was small as there were very few cases in any part of the Borough.
