primary and 15,641 re-vaccination), respectively. The total number of successful
cases amounted to 82,881 in the case of primary vaccination and to 5,664 in that
of re-vaccination during the year under review, as compared with 86,987 and 7,895,
respectively, in 1920-21. The ratio of 30.39 represents the degree of protection
afforded per mille of population in 1921-22 as compared with 32.12, in 1920-21.
Among the well protected municipalities Naini Tal with 69.57 persons successfully
vaccinated per 1,000 of the population heads the list, and is followed by Gonda
with 60.63, Etah with 56.58, Unao with 50.06, Bahraich with 48.92 and Orai with
48.56. Almora, which headed the list last year with 230.86, stands 48th with 30.49.
In Almora a very large number of re-vaccinations was performed in 1920-21.
Naini Tal, which stood fifth last year, is first this year. Gonda which was fourth
in 1920-21 is second this year while Etah retains its position of last year as third.
Among the least protected municipalities the most conspicuous are Mainpuri (8.08),
Ujhani (13.81), Rae Bareli (15.26), Farrukhabad (19.41), and Tanda in the Fyzabad
district (19.55). The decrease in Mainpuri is due to a certain extent to the heavier
mortality among infants and in Ujhani to notices not having been served on parents
who failed to bring their children for vaccination. In Rae Bareli it is ascribed to
the fact that many children left the town while many could not be traced as the
vaccinator was new. In Farrukhabad the Medical Officer of Health attributes it
partly to the non-co-operation movement and partly to the replacement of two old
vaccinators by only one new hand, the second post being abolished. In Tanda no
cause has been assigned by the District Superintendent of Vaccination. The
number of successful vaccinations performed on children under the age of one year
in the municipalities in 1921-22 was 66,494 (vide appendix B) against 70,086 in
1920-21.
Vaccination in cantonments.
13. The number of vaccination operations performed and the number of
persons vaccinated in the cantonments of these Prov-
inces during the year under report were 8,775 (5,178
primary and 3,597 re-vaccination) and 8,764 against 11,527 (6,015 primary and
5,512 re-vaccination) and 11,516, respectively, in the preceding year. The number
of successful primary vaccinations and successful re-vaccinations during the two
years were 4,686 and 2,212 and 5,713 and 3,579, respectively. The number of
persons successfully vaccinated per 1,000 of the population was 33.46 in 1921-22
against 48 35 in 1920-21. The decrease may chiefly be ascribed to a smaller
number of operations having been performed among the recruits. Among the
best protected cantonments, Almora stands first with 267.58. Then in order
come Naini Tal with 124.10, Fyzabad with 121.64, Cawnpore with 105.19 and
Chakrata with 102.81.
Vaccination in notified areas
14. As stated in paragraph 12 above, the notified area of Baraut was con-
verted into a municipality from the 1st April, 1921.
Pauri (Garhwal), which had been constituted a noti-
fied area in 1920, was abolished from the 1st April, 1921. Rajpur (Dehra Dun)
was also abolished from 23rd August, 1921. The population of the notified area
of Chunar settlement according to the Census of 1921 having been included into
that of the Chunar notified area by the Census authorities and not being available
separately, the two notified areas have been treated as one for statistical purposes.
Thus the number of notified areas fell from 50 in the preceding year to 46 during
the year under report. The number of persons vaccinated and that of operations
performed in the 46 notified areas in 1921-22 were 10,792 and 10,940, respectively,
against 13,399 and 13,590, respectively, in 1920-21. Of the 10,940 operations per-
formed 10,407 were primary and 533 re-vaccination as compare with 12,477 and
1,113 in the preceding year respectively. The total number of successful
primary vaccinations amounted to 9,944 and successful re-vaccination to 369 in
1921-22 against 11.897 and 675, respectively, in the previous year. The number
of persons successfully vaccinated per 1,000 of the population was 31.59 against
37.72 Of the well protected notified areas Mainpuri civil station, like last year,
stands first with a ratio of 104.83, followed by Bhim Tal Sat Tal with 56.14.
Then in order come Chunar with 50.14. Mawana with 42.45, Rath with 41.19,
Rasra with 41.05, and Kosi with 40.72. Among the notified areas showing the
least protection, the most conspicuous are Shahganj in the Jaunpur district
(13 50), Bhowali and Ramnagar in the Naini Tal district with 16 76 and 16.83,
respectively, followed by Bargain Bazar in the Gonda district (17.04), Mau in the
Azamgarh district (17.11), Kaimganj in the Farrukhabad district (17.18), and
