Sanitary—Reports and Returns.
Read the following paper :
—
No. 258. From Surgeon-General Sir A. D. HOME, v.c ., K.C.B., Her Majesty's
Forces, to Colonel J. MICHAEL, c.s.i ., Secretary to Government, Military
Department ; dated. Fort St. George, 7th August 1880.
I have the honor to forward, for the information of Government, the three
abstract returns speci
-fied in the margin, with
the following report on
the health of the European
troops serving in the
Madras Command for
the year ending 31st
December 1879.
According to the returns from medical officers received in this office, the
average annual strength of the non-commissioned officers and men was 10,507.
The admissions into hospital in this number were 14,737, being in the rate of
1402.6 per 1,000.
The deaths were 173, being 16.47 per 1,000. The average number constantly
sick was 701, being 66.71 per 1,000.
The invalids sent home were 467, being 44.45 per 1,000.
Each soldier on an average passed 24.35 days in hospital.
The average duration of each illness was 17.36 days.
Compared with the results of the preceding year, there was in the present a
greater prevalence of sickness with a diminished intensity of that occurring,
evidenced by a reduction in the death rate of 4.95 per 1,000 men, and a reduction
in the invaliding rate of 1.32 per 1,000.
A comparison of the sickness and results of sickness in the present and for the
preceding 10 years is shewn in the following table:—
