TRIENNIAL REPORT ON VACCINATION IN BURMA FOR THE YEARS 1896-97—1898-99.
It will be seen from the figures in the above table that, with the exception of
12 towns noted in the margin, which show
a steady increase in the average cost of
each successful case, the cost has gen-
erally decreased in the three years under
reference. The enhanced cost in all these
towns, except Ngathainggyaung, is due
to the smaller amount of work done. In Ngathainggyaung the increase is due to
the vaccinator being paid a fixed salary instead of being remunerated by results,
as in 1896-97 and previous years.
The average cost in 1896-97 varied from As. 9-1 at Mônywa, As. 8-10
at Bhamo, As. 7-4 at Thayetmyo, and As. 7-2 at Mandalay, to As. 1-7 each at
Sagaing and Ma-ubin, As. 1-5 each at Pakôkku and Myingyan, As. 1-4 at Mya-
naung, and to As. 1 at Thatôn. In 1897-98 it ranged from As. 7-3 in Mônywa,
As. 7-2 each in Rangoon and Mandalay, As. 6-9 in Bhamo, and As. 5-6 each in
Kyaukpyu and Zalun, to As. 1-7 each in Shwebo and Pakôkku, As. 1-6 in Mya-
naung, As. 1-2 in Thatôn, and As. 1-1 in Sagaing. In the last year of the trien-
nium the average varied from As. 8-6 in Rangoon, As. 6-8 in Myaungmya,
As. 6-6 in Ramree, and As. 5-8 in Kyaukpyu, to As. 1-8 in Myanaung, As. 1-7
in Ma-ubin, As. 1 -6 in Sagaing, and pies 11 in Thatôn.

In 20 out of 37 districts the average cost has decreased from year to year,
while in the ten districts named in the
margin there has been a continuous
rise in this respect. In the remaining
seven districts the variations are small
and unimportant. The increased cost
in the Arakan Hill Tracts is said to be due to the difficulty in obtaining subjects
owing to great opposition to vaccination on the part of the people. In Pegu the
enhanced cost was due to the increase in the establishment by one vaccinator
in 1897-98 and by two in 1898-99 as well as to the smaller outturn of work owing to
slackness of the operators and laxity of supervision. The higher cost in Mandalay
was almost entirely due to the appointment of a native supervisor on the 1st April
1898 at a salary of Rs. 35 per mensem. In the Sagaing, Lower Chindwin, and
Pakôkku districts the increase was due to the fewer number of operations per-
Arakan Hill Tracts.
