Annual Report on the working of the Vaccination Department in the
North-West Frontier Province for the year 1911-12.
REVIEW BY THE CHIEF COMMISSIONER.
THE strength of the Vaccination Department during the year under
report was higher by one vaccinator than in the previous year owing to the
entertainment of a temporary local vaccinator in Chitral. The Chief Commis¬
sioner notes with satisfaction that there was an increased output of work under
every heading and a higher percentage of successful operations. The large
increase in the number of successful primary vaccination on children under
one year of age and on children between one and six years of age is also a
satisfactory feature.
2. The increasing popularity of vaccination in the Agencies has been
maintained. It is interesting to note that for the first time vaccination work
has been undertaken in the Khyber Agency, where 407 persons were operated
on. The large increase in the number of operations performed in the Amb
State (Hazara District) is very noticeable. The desirability of employing as
vaccinators existing village inoculators is borne in mind, and such men are
entertained where available.
3. The Chief Commissioner agrees with the Chief Medical Officer as to
the inadvisability of attempting to enforce the Vaccination Act with any
degree of strictness in the North-West Frontier Province. The steady increase
in the number of vaccinations performed is in itself a sufficient proof that the
people are gradually learning to appreciate the benefits of vaccination.

FROM
LIEUT.-COL. T. W. IRVINE, M.B., C.M, F.R.C.S.E. D.P.H., I. M. S.,
Officiating Chief Medical Officer,
North-West Frontier Province,
To
MAJOR D. B. BLAKEWAY, C.I.E., I. A.,
Secretary to the Hon'ble the Chief Commissioner,
North-West Frontier Province.
Dated Peshawar, the 27th May 1912.
SIR,
I HAVE the honour to submit, for the information of the Chief Com-
missioner, the prescribed Vaccination statements for the year 1911-12 with
the following brief remarks.
Administration.
2. Lieutenant-Colonel Edwards, C.M.G., held the appointment of Chief
Medical Officer from the beginning
of the year to October 9th, from which
date I have held the appointment.
Statement No. I.—Strength of the Department.
3. The strength of establishment was during the year under report
Divisional Inspectors 2, Superintend-
ents 6, and Vaccinators 36. Since
last year there is an increase of one Vaccinator. This increase is at Chitral,
where one temporary local Vaccinator has been entertained.
Statement No. I —Total number of vaccinations per-
formed by all establishments.
4. The total number of vaccinations performed was 112,579 pri-
mary and 21,223 re-vaccinations, while
132,952 persons were operated on.
The number of primary operations has increased since last year by
12,860, re-vaccinations by 13,376, and persons operated on by 25,519. The
percentage of successful cases was primary 98.74 and re-vaccinations 83.66.
Average number of operations performed by each
Vaccinator.
5. The average number performed
by each Vaccinator was 3,165.52.
Bannu District heads the list with an average of 6,000 per Vaccinator,
Peshawar and Kohat districts coming next with 4,348 and 3,923, respectively.
These figures are satisfactory. Under every heading an increased output
of work has been recorded and the percentage of successful work has increased.
Vaccination according to ages.
6. Of the total successful primary vaccinations in the districts 58,925
were performed on children under one
year of age and 27,762 on children
between 1 year and 6 years of age. An increase of 2,000 and 10,000,
respectively, over the previous year is shared by all the districts except Bannu.
Re-vaccination.
7. The large increase of 13,376 shows an increasing belief in the effi-
cacy of vaccination. The greatest in-
crease is in the Bannu District, e. g.
9,832 re-vaccinations in place of 1,161. This is difficult to explain unless it is
( 3 )
re-vaccinations. Inspection work done by the Divisional Inspectors and
Superintendents for the past two years is as follows :—

The percentage of successful cases found by Superintendents out of the very
large number inspected by them was 98.42 and 81.41. The very large number
of re-vaccinations done and inspected is noteworthy, as is the high percentage
of successful cases.
Appendix A.—Vaccination work in Municipal towns.
15. In Peshawar City 1,997 births were recorded during the year and
3,470 vaccination operations were per-
formed on children under one year.
The reason of this is probably twofold, and is that a large number of the
people from the neighbouring country have their children vaccinated in
Peshawar ; and, secondly, the wandering population going to and coming from
trans-border districts frequently bring their children for vaccination.
In no other Municipal area, except Tank, do vaccinations under one
year exceed births ; in Dera Ismail Khan the figures are 1,053 births and 830
vaccinations, and it is reported from there that "infants were imported from
other places."
The Vaccination Act is not in force in Peshawar City nor in Lakki
Notified Area. I am very doubtful if it is advisable to introduce or enforce the
Vaccination Act with any degree of strictness in this Province. The people
must learn here, as elsewhere, by bitter experience the advantages of vaccina-
tion. If strongly enforced and no fortuitous small-pox occurred at the same
time, I think it more than possible that the popularity of vaccination would
suffer.
Appendix B.—Successful vaccination with annual
ratios of deaths from small-pox.
16. In Appendix B are shown the number of successful vaccinations and
the mortality from small-pox per thou-
sand of population for the past 5 years.
Particulars of vaccination performed by various
kinds of lymph.
17. Throughout the year the lymph used has been glycerinated chloro-
form lymph procured from the Vaccine
Institute, Punjab. It has given good
results, the percentage of success being
98.74 primary and 83.66 re-vaccinations. It is supplied in tubes containing
sufficient lymph for about 40 operations. I consider that a certain number of
smaller or even capillary tubes should be supplied to Vaccinators to enable them
to avoid as much as possible opening and reclosing these larger tubes.
Attitude of the people towards vaccination.
18. The attitude of the people towards vaccination is not one of hostility
by any means. There is the usual
amount of apathy, of laziness, and of
disinclination to be annayed. The principle and protection conferred is well
understood, and it is always noted that, if small-pox is looming on the horizon,
the vaccination returns go up considerably.
I have the honour to be,
SIR,
Your most obedient Servant,
T. W. IRVINE, LIEUT.-COL., I. M. S.,
Offg. Chief Medical Officer,
North-West Frontier Province.
