Inoculation cited in council on disease decline
At a municipal council meeting the inspector reported twenty typhoid cases in the last year with other infectious diseases, while 1915 saw 91 and 1916 had 78. Alderman Webster noted the small number of cases, largely due to inoculation and better town conditions, praising local doctors for inexpensive inoculation efforts. The inspector highlighted that last year none of the notified cases had been inoculated. Doctors Delohery and Broadbent stated typhoid admissions this summer were only two since October 1, 1917.
