NOTES ON VACCINATION IN THE BOMBAY
PRESIDENCY FOR THE YEAR 1927-28
These notes are modified in accordance with instructions
contained in memo: No. 1067/H, dated the 25th June 1928, from
the Government of India, Department of. Education, Health and
Lands. Figures of dispensary vaccinations are included in statement
No. I, and statement No. III has been omitted. Appendix III has
also been omitted the required information being given in the body
of the report as a separate statement showing the towns in which the
Vaccination Act is in force.
2. Selected Districts.—The system introduced in the year 1910
by which the control of vaccination in one district of each Registra-
tion Circle is exercised by the Local Board of that district was
continued throughout the year.
3. Changes in area and administration.—No changes occurred
in the Western Registration District. In the Central Registration
District, Man taluka of the Satara District was constituted a mahal
with effect from 1st April 1928. In Sind, 2,046 villages are said to
have been depopulated. Vaccination of the Civil population of
Belgaum Cantonment was handed over to the Medical Officer in
charge of the Cantonment Hospital with effect from June 10th, 1927.
The control of vaccination in Bansda State hitherto under the
Gujarat Registration District was transferred to the State authorities
in July 1927. Whereas formerly in Muscat town vaccinations have
been performed at the Agency Hospital only when small-pox was
prevailing, it is now carried out as a routine during the cold
season. Three thousand six hundred and fifteen persons were
vaccinated in Muscat during the year.
4. Changes in supervising staff.—The following table shows
the various officers who held the appointments of Director and
Assistant Directors of Public Health and the Director, Vaccine

5. Changes in the strength of the establishment.—The vaccinator
of Shirpur continued to act as Registration karkun in addition to his
other duties throughout the year.
The permanent vaccination establishment in Thar and Parkar
district was increased by three vaccinators and one candidate
vaccinator. The three additional vaccinators were posted to the
desert talukas of Thar and Parkar District—Mithi, Chachro and Nagar
Parkar—Besides this establishment, a temporary candidate vaccinator
sanctioned by the District Local Board was employed for 8 months
during the year.
An additional vaccination karkun was appointed permanently in
Hyderabad town.
Owing to the transfer of vaccination work of Bansda State the
number of vaccinators in Native States was reduced from 22 to 21
with effect from July 1927.
No other changes of importance in the strength of the vaccin-
ation establishment took place during the year.

The present slight drop of 2,600 has been preceded by a steady
rise since 1923-24 reaching an increase of over 14,000 in 1926-27.
In Gujarat heavy rains and floods extending over large areas put
a stop to the work of the vaccinators who were employed on Flood
Relief duties for a time.

For the Presidency as a whole the percentages were (1) 65.50
and (2) 83.08.
The deficiency in Birth Registration in Sind is very noticeable.
7. Results.—Out of 651,119 primary vaccinations 567,711 or
87.19 per cent were successful and 1,206 or 0.19 per cent unsuccessful.
In the remaining 12.62 per cent of cases the results could not be
ascertained.
Eighty-five persons were vaccinated a second time owing to failure
of the first operation.
8. Age and sex.—Of the primary vaccinations, 422,250 or 74
per cent, were of infants under one year of age, and 137,485 or 24
per cent, of children between the ages of one and six years. By sex,
340,595 were males and 310,439 females, equal to a proportion of
109.71 to 100. The proportion of male to female children born
during the year was 107.98 to 100.
Re-vaccination (Appendix I, Statement I)
9. During the year 1927-28, 115,246 persons were re-vaccinated
against 117,264 in the previous year showing a decrease of 2,018.
The percentage of successful re-vaccinations was 19.20. Results
could not be ascertained in 54.30 per cent of cases.
A circular has been issued to all Officers of the Department
inviting their attention to the remarks made by the Public Health
Commissioner with the Government of India in an address delivered
by him at Calcutta before the 7th congress of the Far Eastern Asso-
ciation of Tropical Medicine regarding the importance of re-vaccination
and they have been directed to devote special attention to the subject
and to instruct their Inspectors and Vaccinators in the importance of
pushing on re-vaccination propaganda. Attempts are being made
through the educational authorities to popularise re-vaccination
among school children.
10. Vaccination of pilgrims at Karachi.—A temporary vaccina-
tion establishment consisting of one male and one female vaccinator,
one clerk and one coolie was entertained in Karachi town for the
vaccination of pilgrims proceeding to the Hedjaz. A second male
vaccinator was entertained from 14th April to 26th May 1927. Fifteen
thousand and five pilgrims were re-vaccinated during the months of
April and May 1927 and January, February and March 1928 of whom
12,932 were males and 2,073 females. By age periods 38 were under one
year, 73 between one and ten years, and the remaining 14,894 above
ten years. The total expenditure incurred on vaccination of these
pilgrims amounted to Rs. 941-10-7 and was defrayed by Government.
In the preceding year 11,475 pilgrims were vaccinated at a total
expenditure of Rs. 871-9-0.
Vaccination in Indian States (Appendix II, Statement I)
11. In the Indian States 82,413 persons were primarily vacci-
nated against 75,225 in 1926-27. The number of successful cases
was 81,755 or 99.20 per cent. The percentage of success excluding
unknown was 99.92.
5
Re-vaccinations numbered 3,729 against 4,802 in the previous
year. The success rate, excluding 355 unknown results was 67.66.
12. Total operations.—During the year the total number of
primary vaccinations performed amounted to 733,447 and of re¬
vaccinations to 118,972 against 738,277 and 122,066 in 1926-27.
13. Incidence of small-pox.—The following table shows the
incidence of small-pox by three age periods in the different Registra-
tion Districts :—

In all, there were 4,285 deaths which compares satisfactorily
with the quinquennial mean (Calendar Years) of 4,940.
The
incidence was heaviest in the East Khandesh, Nasik, Ahmednagar,
Sholapur, Belgaum and Surat Districts.
14. Vaccination campaigns.—With the object of reducing the
number of unprotected school children to a minimum the usual
monsoon campaign was conducted by Inspectors of Vaccination in
Municipal Towns and Taluka Head Quarters.
Vaccinations in police lines and out-posts in being carried out
regularly. Special visits are paid by the vaccinators every month for
this purpose.
The vaccinators in charge of big fair centres were directed to
push on primary and re-vaccinations well in advance of the various
melas with the result that all centres escaped infection.
An attempt was made through the agency of influential local
councillors and other public men to induce the Momin community at
Malegaon to get their children vaccinated but without much success.
These people are deaf to all persuasion in spite of the recurrent
epidemics of considerable severity which sweep the town constituting
a menace to the rest of the District. The application of the Vacci-
nation Act to Malegaon requires consideration.
15. Lymph.—The lymph prepared at Vaccine Institute was the
only one used throughout the Presidency.

Cost of Vaccination (Appendix I, Statement II)
16. The cost of vaccination came to Rs. 646,283 against
Rs. 616,932. The increase in the expenditure is chiefly due to an
item of Rs. 16,768 for electrical energy supplied by the Electrical
Engineer's Department to the Vaccine Institute, which is now
debited to 33 Public Health. The appointment of a full time
Director of the Vaccine Institute and increments to the pay of
various Officers account for the remainder.
The average cost of each successful case of vaccination was
Rs. 1-1-9 against Rs. 1-0-10 in the previous year.
Vaccine Institute, Belgaum
17. The Vaccine Institute under its new Director Dr. J. B. Mama,
transferred from the Public Health Laboratory Poona of which he has
been in charge since 1st April 1911, had a successful year's work,
102,697 c.c. of lymph being manufactured and 1,294,200 doses issued
as compared with 1,215,330 during the previous year and exceeding
all issues during the past three years. Besides the vaccinators of
the Presidency lymph was supplied to Baroda, Kotah, Idar and
Jhalwar States as well as to Kathiawar, Palanpur and Mahikantha
Agencies. The increase in the total issues of lymph is largely due
to increased demands from these States.
Of the 1,294,200 doses issued 890,875 were reported to have been
used. Of the remaining 400,000 doses over 200,000 were issued to
Indian States, 128,000 to Civil Medical Officers and others and 23,000 to
Military Medical Officers, the success rate for all primary operations
being99.81 and for re-vaccinations 46.57. The high quality of
