Zymotic Deaths. The Zymotic Death Kate is that
from the principal zymotic or infectious diseases, viz.
smallpox, scarlet fever, diphtheria, measles, whoopingcough,
diarrhoea and fevers (typhus, enteric, other or
doubtful fevers).
The mortality from these diseases was higher than
in 1931, 73 deaths being due to them as against 39. This
increase was due almost entirely to the biennial epidemic
of measles, which caused 26 deaths in 1932 whereas only
one death was due to measles in 1931. The death rate
per 1,000 of the population was 0.49 as compared with
0.25 for 1931.
