Primary
vaccinations
done.
9. Excluding Kángra, there were 28,150 fewer primary vaccinations
done by the district staff than in 1889-90. This decrease
was due to the excessive mortality that occurred among
infants during the autumn months. The principal decrease occurred in the
districts of Siálkot, Gujrát, Gujránwála, and Gurdáspur, where the infantile
mortality was particularly high.
Re-vaccinations done.
10. Considerable attention was given to re-vaccination by the district
staff. Excluding Kángra, they performed 105,519 more
re-vaccinations than in the previous year. The greatest
increase in the number of re-vaccinations took place in the districts of Hissár,
Rohtak, Karnál, Ferozepore, Mooltan, Montgomery, Amritsar, Gurdáspur,
Bazára, Peshawar, Dera Gházi Khan, and Muzaffargarh. There is, however,
reason to believe that in several districts vaccinators have re-vaccinated a con-
siderable number of children who had been re-vaccinated one or two years
previously. I propose calling the attention of Civil Surgeons to this subject
in the beginning of next vaccinating season.
Work done by special
staff.
11. The special staff performed, on the whole, 1,980 more operations
than in 1889-90. They did 10,751 fewer primary operations
and 12,731 more re-vaccinations than in the previous year.
Work done by canton-
ment staff.
12. There were 618 more operations done by the cantonment staff than
in the previous year. They did 1,178 more re-vaccinations
and 560 fewer primary vaccinations than in 1889-90.
Work done by dispensary
staff
13. There were 657 fewer dispensary vaccinations done than in the
previous year. Under primary vaccination the decrease
was 557, and this staff did 100 fewer cases of re-vaccina-
tion than in 1889-90.
Progress of animal lymph

14. The following statement gives the number of operations performed
in the different districts with animal lymph during the
