The cases normally resident outside the district notified from the Barnet
General Hospital and Victoria Maternity Hospital, which are included in these
tables, are as follows
Dysentery 2; Puerperal Pyrexia 12; Pood Poisoning 2.
Another year has passed with no cases of Poliomyelitis notified in the
district. The Polio vaccination scheme is still in being and one hopes
that nil returns will not lull parents into a false sense of security and
that they will continue to maintain the vaccination state of the children and
young persons particularly. The new Oral Polio vaccine became available
early in the year and the ease with which the immunisation can be carried out
should assist in getting an even higher percentage of children protected.
