Institutional Treatment.
In November, 1928, I drew attention to the fact that no
provision existed for the institutional treatment and isolation in
Leyton Isolation Hospital of such infectious diseases as enteric
fever, cerebro-spinal meningitis, poliomyelitis, encephalitis lethargica
and other notifiable infectious diseases.
In 1930 your Council entered into an agreement with Connaught
Hospital for the reservation of two beds for the treatment of enteric
fever cases from this area; but as the result of experience during
the last year I do not regard the arrangement as being satisfactory,
even in times when enteric fever is not epidemic. Should a widespread
outbreak occur, the arrangement would be hopelessly inadequate
to cope with the number of cases requiring isolation.
