REPORT ON THE
percentage of past years. This high death-rate is influenced by the admission
at all the Calcutta institutions, but more especially at Howrah and the Campbell
Hospitals, of persons in a hopelessly advanced stage of disease. In this and the
previous year the rate of mortality among cholera patients is seen to have been
higher than in any year of the decade. Although cholera was less prevalent
and fatal among the general population, it was of more severe type among those
admitted to hospital, the death-rate in 1892 having been 59.9 per cent. of the
total treated. Excluding cholera, the death-rate has varied very little in the
past eleven years, and was 11.3 per cent. in 1892.
7. The following table gives the mortality among men, women, and
children in the last three years :—
