Tuberculosis Dispensaries.
During the past year various changes have taken place in the work of the
three Dispensaries of the Borough. In the first place the areas served by each
Dispensary have been altered in order to make each district, as far as is
possible, the same size. This has necessitated the transference of a number
of patients from the Stepney Green Dispensary to the St. George-in-the-East
and Whitechapel Dispensaries.
