NOTES AND STATISTICS
ON
VACCINATION IN BURMA
FOR THE YEAR 1923-24.

strength of the vaccination staff actually employed during the year
1923-24 and the two preceding years :—

The cadre of Sub-Assistant Surgeons receiving vaccination allow-
ance or otherwise employed in the Department was increased by five
due to the creation of the additional post of Medical Registrar of Regis-
tration and Vaccination in the Corporation of Rangoon. There was
an addition of one in the cadre of Inspectors of Vaccination employed,
accounted for by the filling up of the vacancy in Kyaukpyu District.
The two vacant Inspectorships in Amherst and Myingyan Districts
have not yet been filled. The permanent establishment of vaccinators
was increased by three, viz., one in Yandoon Municipality and two in
Myingyan District. The vaccination establishments in the Federated
Shan States were re-organized from 1st September 1923, and the
Supervisors of Vaccination employed in the districts of Upper Burma
and in Kyaukpyu and Sandoway Districts were granted increased
rates of pay by Government from 1st March 1923,—their designation
being changed to that of Inspectors of Vaccination. The Vaccination
staff was depleted by the death of two Inspectors of Vaccination,—one
at Prome and the other in Taikkyi Subdivision of Insein District. The
Inspector in Sagaing District was invalided owing to ill-health, and the
Inspector of Sandoway District was removed for absenting himself
from duty without the permission of the Civil Surgeon. Seven vacci-
nators were either removed or dismissed from the service for various
reasons.
Statt. I.
2. Vaccination Work performed.—The total number of operations
reported during the year 1923-24, as performed by the permanent and
special staffs of the Department and other agencies,—excluding
vaccinations in Dispensaries and Jails,—was 752,447, of which
FOR THE YEAR 1923-24.

case of successful vaccination. The increase in the average cost per
case at Mergui is due to (1) the revised pay sanctioned for the Town
Vaccinators and (2) the grant of four months' leave on average pay
with allowances for the permanent incumbent, and the appointment
of a substitute. The estimated cost per case in the Hill Districts of
Pakôkku and Arakan does not seem to call for any comment,
considering the fact that the population is scattered and communi-
cations difficult, and that Vaccinators have been in receipt of increased
rates of pay. The same remarks apply to Myitkyina and Katha
Districts.
16. General Remarks.—Dr. Aung Tun, B.A., M.B., Ch.B, was in
charge of the Depôt till 14th June 1923, when he was relieved by
Lieutenant-Colonel H. A. Williams, D.S.O., I.M.S., who in his turn
handed over charge on 19th February 1924 to Major J. W. Jones,
D.S.O., I.M.S., the present Director of the Depôt. Sub-Assistant
Surgeon Man Singh was Assistant Director from the beginning of the
year to 5th September 1923 when he was relieved by Sub-Assistant
Surgeon, Maung Kyaw Din, who continued for the rest of the year
under report. He is reported by the Director to have carried out
his duties in a most efficient manner and to take a keen interest in the
work, initiating several improvements. The clerical and other staff
remained the same as in the previous year and all performed their
duties satisfactorily.
G. JOLLY, Major, I.M.S.,
Offg. Director of Public Health, Burma.
