No cases were notified.
Tuberculosis.
Under the Public Health Tuberculosis Regulations
a register of all notifications is kept and
weekly returns of cases are sent to the County
Medical Officer. The continual movement of cases
from one district to another requires constant supervision
so that particulars can be brought up-to-date
and represent a true record.
At the end of this year the following was the number of persons shewn to be suffering from the disease and living within the district.
| Pul. | Non. Pul. | |

| Males | 48 | 23 |
