Special Hospitals for consumptives


A hundred years ago the city of
Naples, Italy. erected a la-Ee hospital
for consumptives. and required the
isolation of all persons suffering from
this disease. 1t is only recently, how
ever, that the authorities of modern
cities have become awakened to the
importance of this sanitary measure.
Recently a number of cities have
taken steps for the establishment of
hospitals especially for the treatment
of cases of consumption by the So
called "open-air method" Excellent
results are reported from this method
of treatment.
The German government has a
large central committee numbering
more than thirteen hundred persons,
organized for the purpose of erecting
hospitals for the treatment of tuber-
culosis. This committee has under It's
supervision seventy-four such hospi-
tails. and last year treated over thirty
thousand patients. of whom eighty per
cent were returned to their homes
practically cured after remaining n
the hospitals on an average of little
less than three months.
