New Sanatorium Sought at Wales to Expand Tuberculosis Care
A state visiting committee urges $100,000 in appropriations to expand the Wales tuberculosis sanatorium. The report notes current infirmary capacity of 260 beds and a need for at least 86 more beds due to long waiting lists, rising demand, and the rapid progression of TB cases. Judges from Clark, Rusk, and Bayfield counties push for earlier treatment and safer neighborhood conditions, citing delays in placing patients in sanatorium care and the high rate of advanced cases among applicants.
