The school was visited on various occasions, and all the
children who had been away were examined, and also all the
children in the classes. Later I swabbed all of those who
had been away with a suspicion of sore throat, and found a
carrier (a girl) who had been under treatment with a doctor
for tonsillitis, and had been back at school for a fortnight.
This child was immediately isolated in the Hospital. On
the occurrence of another case I immediately swabbed every
child in the two classes, and the three teachers concerned in
their instruction.
One carrier case was found amongst these, and was
immediately isolated in the Hospital. This child had never
sat in proximity to any of the other notified cases.
