Legislative push for blood testing and venereal disease control
Dr. Austin notes authorities can compel prostitutes to report for blood tests and treatment if infected, with possible imprisonment for refusal. War shortages may speed compulsory blood testing for residents aged 14 to 60, due to scarce laboratory personnel. Education campaigns will precede county by county testing, seeking local cooperation. The legislature also standardizes vital statistics, registers foundlings, and raises rabies inoculation costs. Kangaroo rats' water independence noted and Western alliance steel capacity cited.
