In Sarangarh two vaccinators were employed, the number of primary opera-
tions performed by them was 5,223 with percentage 98.16 successful, and by the
Hospital Assistant 226 with a percentage of success 100.
In Padampur and Chandarpur one vaccinator performed 2,631 primary
operations with 99.16 successful, and in Bamra two men performed 12,287
primary operations with 99.8 per cent successful; in all 20,141 persons were
vaccinated. There were only 28 cases of revaccination, of which 22 or 78.57
were successful. In the Patna State 10,997 primary operations were performed
with a percentage of 95.6 by 10 vaccinators and Native Doctor Nur Mahomed.
112 secondary vaccinations were performed, of which only 8 were successful.
In the Sonpur State there is a 3rd class Hospital Assistant, but he appears
to have done no vaccination work. A special report will be asked from the Civil
Surgeon regarding this man.
32. Raipur.—In this district 18 vaccinators are employed in the Feudatory
and Non-feudatory (Zamindari) States ; in the former case under the supervision
of a Hospital Assistant attached to the State, in the latter of the Native Superin-
tendent of vaccination.
In the Nandgaon State 3 vaccinators were employed, who performed 2,787
primary operations, of which 2,636 or 94.58 per cent were successful. Average
work of each vaccinator 929.
In the Zamindaries of Kowria, Surmar, Khariar, Bindra Nawagarh. Phin¬
gesur, Khuji, and Doundi Lohara, 5 vaccinators were employed, who performed
6,864 operations, of which 6,553 or 95.4 were successful. Average work of each
vaccinator 1,372.
In Dongargarh 5 vaccinators were employed ; they performed 5,227 primary
operations, of which 4,633 or 84.9 per cent were successful. Average work of
each vaccinator 1,045.
In Khyragarh 5 vaccinators performed 3,193 primary operations, of
which 3,063 or 95.9 per cent were successful. Average work of each vaccinator
638.
No revaccination was done in these States. The average work performed
is bad, and had it been checked by inspection would probably have turned out
worse than reported.
33. In Bilaspur there are 4 Native States, to each of which a vaccinator
is appointed.
In Sakti vaccination was introduced for the first time in December 1880.
The vaccinator performed last season 716 operations, of which 703 or 98.18
per cent were successful. In 1880-81 only 471 children were vaccinated. The
population is estimated at 20,000, so the work cannot be considered as good.
It was not inspected by the Hospital Assistant. The Koshtees and Telees, how-
ever, have a preference for inoculation, which was practised here prior to the
introduction of vaccination, but has since ceased. Doubtless the vaccinator
has considerable prejudices and difficulties to contend with, which will decrease
as the inhabitants become more used to vaccination.
The Hospital Assistant vaccinated 122 children with a percentage of 81.18
successful.
In Pandaria the vaccinator performed only 328 operations, of which 248 or
75.6 per cent were successful. In the previous year there were 680 operations.
No account of this man's work is given by the Hospital Assistant, who per-
formed himself 153 operations, of which 145 or 94.9 per cent were successful.
