Bombay Castle,

Letter from the Sanitary Commissioner for the Government of Bombay, No. B.—2199,
dated the 28th June 1899—
Submitting the Annual Report on Vaccination for the year 1898-99.
RESOLUTION.—The report should be published.
2. The circumstances of the year 1898 were quite exceptional as the low
birth rate of 1897 considerably reduced the number of children available for
vaccination, while the necessity for employing all the available staff of the
Department on plague work naturally largely decreased the amount of vaccina-
tion work accomplished. Any comparison therefore between the results attained
during the year of report and those of normal years would be of little value.
His Excellency the Governor in Council concurs in the hope expressed by the
Sanitary Commissioner that the cessation of famine and its after effects may
be accompanied by the disappearance of plague and followed by renewed activity
on the part of the Vaccination Department, whose efforts for the mitigation of
a terrible scourge, the people generally have undoubtedly begun to appreciate.
