10. The Vaccinators of this Staff performed 515,639 primary and
225,148 secondary vaccinations, or a total of 740,787
operations. Last year the number of primary vaccinations
performed by this Staff was 567,597, and re-vaccinations 1 62,063, or a total of
729,660. The District Staff thus did 51,958 fewer primary vaccinations and
63,085 more re-vaccinations. On the whole it will be observed that there was
an increase of 11,127 operations as compared with the number last year.
Percentage of successful
operations.
11. Of the total primary vaccinations 387,749 operations were success-
fully performed on children under one year of age, as
against 419,141 in 1891-92 and 401,674 in 1890-91.
Avarage number of vac¬
cinatious performed by-
each Vaccinator.
12. The average number of vaccinations performed by each Vaccinator
in the 31 districts taken together was 2,684, in the pre-
vious year it was 2,663. The highest average viz., 5,281
was obtained in the district of Gurdáspur. In Jhelum,
Kángra, Ferozepore, Amritsar, Dera Gházi Khan and Mooltan, the number varied
from 3,547 to 3,737. In Kohát, Shahpur, Jhang, Bannu and Pesháwar the
work turned out by each Vaccinator- was very considerably below the average
probably due to the sparseness of the population and the difficulty of travelling
from village to village in some of these districts.
