The work of the Hospital Assistants was found very good, especially so at
Umrer and Khapa; that of the Kamptee vaccinator is not well spoken of by
the Civil Surgeon; Dispensary vaccination is now confined to the town in which
the dispensary is situated.
The Civil Surgeon does not consider the present staff of vaccinators for
Nagpur city and its suburbs sufficient.
The supply of lymph was kept up at Nagpur and Kamptee.
The small increase in the number of operations over that of last year
is ascribed to the presence of new vaccinators. one of the old ones died of cholera
while treating those ill of that disease.
Small-pox was general in the district, and while persons who had been vac-
cinated were found to have the disease, such was the case in comparatively few ;
and in all such persons the disease was very mild.
The advantages that would result from a village register of children who
are attacked with small-pox, and from the adoption of better means of pre-
serving the village vaccination register are pointed out in the Native Superinten-
dent's report, and the latter in a special report by the Civil Surgeon.
81. Wardha.—Arm to arm vaccination is objected to by the people ; the
Civil Surgeon says not because the parents dislike lymph being taken from their
children's arms, but because they object to its being used for vaccinating low caste
children.
The Civil Surgeon was prevented from doing as much inspection as he
wished by sickness in the station.
The decrease in the number of operations is attributed to a decrease in the
number of children available, owing to the mortality from cholera, no children
being left in some of the villages.
Opposition to vaccination is getting less, there is not any down-right hos-
tility to it now.
Small-pox caused 341 deaths : of 848 persons examined it was found that
770 had been vaccinated, and of these 74 took the disease.
82. Chanda —The supply of lymph was kept up till the end of July,
when it failed to produce results.
The amount of work done was about the same as last year, and the Civil
Surgeon thinks that judging by the birth returns the amount of work of all the
vaccinators but one was good. No re-vaccination in the meaning of a second
operation on persons previously successfully vaccinated.
The amount of success obtained by some of the vaccinators was very
small.
Dispensary vaccination operations were fewer, due, the Civil Surgeon
thinks, to a fewer number of villages having been made over to them.
The small percentage of success is attributed to the fact that vaccination is
carried on almost entirely by points. "Arm to arm" vaccination being said to
be impracticable in the villages in the interior of the district.
Small-pox prevailed in the district: of 94 cases examined it was found
that in only 14 had vaccination been successfully perfotmed. The lower classes
and castes regard vaccination as a thing that must be endured, but the
upper castes and classes oppose its spread.
18
85. Sambalpur.—The supply of lymph was kept up all through the non-
working season; but that obtained from the English lymph sent from the Sani-
tary Commissioner's office took the place of this at the beginning of the cold
season.
In some of the circles only 1 or 2 marks were found instead of 4, the result
it is said of vaccination not being " arm to arm "
In Raighur State inoculation was carried on, and caused small-pox, which,
however, did not attack those protected by vaccination.
In the Rehrakole Zamindari some of the people refused vaccination, and
would not accept it in spite of the Rajah's advice.
The Civil Surgeon was on tour 51 days, and inspected 508 villages. The
Native Superintendent was on tour 121 days and inspected 716 villages. The
staff is well reported of.
86. The Nagpur Medical School having been closed, no lectures on hygiene
were given during the past year.
87. A supply of lymph was for the first time obtained from Kumaon, and
with it 36 children were vaccinated in different districts, of whom 25 took quite
successfully, and the numbers would probably have been larger, but that in one
district too many persons were vaccinated with the supply.
88. During the past season, a special report was called for by the Chief
Commissioner at the request of the Government of Bombay as to the protection
against an attack of small-pox afforded by successful vaccination. The precise
information called for could not be furnished, owing in many cases to the fact
that small-pox had not existed in their districts, but the general opinion of Civil
Surgeons was, that though successful vaccination does not give complete protec¬
tion, it does give very nearly as thorough immunity as a previous attack of the
disease.
89. And this year's reports of the Civil Surgeons confirm this opinion, and
show that the disease in the case of those vaccinated, is in most cases very
slight.

REPORT
ON THE
VACCINE OPERATIONS
IN THE
CENTRAL PROVINCES,
FOR
THE YEAR 1884-85.
NAGPUR:
PRINTED AT THE CHIEF COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE PRESS.
1885.
No. 3520/179
FROM
A. H. L. FRASER, ESQUIRE, C.S.,
OFFG. SECRETARY TO THE CHIEF COMMISSIONER,
Central Provinces.
To
THE DEPUTY SURGEON GENERAL,
Central Provinces.
Dated Nagpur, the 11th September 1885.
SIR,
I am directed to acknowledge with thanks the receipt of your letter
No. 4840 C. C., dated 21st ultimo, submitting the Vaccination Report for
1884-85.
Provincial Staff.
2. The operations performed by the Provincial Vaccine Departments were
more numerous than in any preceding year.
They were as follows for the last three years :—
1882-83
1883-84
1884-85
Primary
Vaccination.
... 345,126
... 343,096
... 346,753
Re-vaccination.
12,829
9,547
13,695
Total.
357,955
352,643
360,448
The percentage of success in primary vaccinations is given as 96.56 as
against 96.15 for 1883-84 ; the lower percentage in re-vaccination cases (71.27
against 77.20) is attributed " to more accurate reporting of the results, and
'' more care in recording operations as those of re-vaccination." The average
cost of each successful operation was Rs. 0-1-10¾ against Rs. 0-1-9¼ ; but, if the
accidental increase in the allowances of the Deputy Surgeon General be omitted,
the cost for 1884-85 would only be Rs. 0-l-9½. These figures generally then
are quite satisfactory. And the inspections of the Civil Surgeons and Native
Superintendents indicate the good quality of the work done, showing 95 and 92
per cent of success respectively.
Dispensary Vaccination.
3. Vaccination by Hospital Assistants at Dispensaries has attracted special
attention during the year. And the Chief Commissioner
has recently issued rules to regulate it. The figures for the
last three years show steady decrease. They are :—
1882-83
1883-84
1884-85
Primary
Vaccinations.
... 30,114
... 25,548
... 22,812
Re-vaccinations.
1,359
2,246
1,648
Total.
31,473
27,794
24,460
This shows a decrease last year of 3,679 followed this year by a further
decrease of 3,334. The Chief Commissioner cannot regret this, if (as in Nagpur)
3
done. The attitude of the people towards vaccination has improved: the people
are nowhere hostile: they are generally perhaps indifferent; but the Chief Com-
missioner is glad to hear that they are not infrequently favourable to vaccination,
and to acknowledge the cordial and valuable assistance given by some whose
services are recorded by Civil Surgeons. There is little doubt that any difficulty
still experienced may easily be overcome by tact and patience.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient Servant,
A. H. L. FRASER,
Offg. Secretary.

The returns of vaccination work in the Patna State during the past season
have not been furnished me. I have therefore excluded the figures of work in
that State for 1883-84.
3. The grand total of operations performed is 415,804, being 5,683 in excess
of that of last season.
4. The percentage of success is this year, in accordance with the instruc-
tions issued by the Chief Commissioner, calculated on the total number of opera-
tions including those the results of which are unknown.
