organized fight against typhoid fever
in Wake and four other counties.
This disease, the health authorities
say, may be completely stamped out,
if every man, woman n child will
do his part. Vaccination is the pre-
ventive proposed. |
Vaccination against typhoid is no
longer an experiment. About the only |
definite thing not known about it is
the length of time for which it con-
ferS immunity against the disease. 1t
is good for three Or four years at
least but only time and experience
can tell how much longer. It is prob
able that like vaccination against
smallpox the immunity in some cases
lasts for a term of years and in other
instances for life.
Health Assurance.
The Health Board says: 1.-THE i'm
portance to every citizen of awaiting
himself Of this chance of securing
this free, safe and sure life and health
aSSurance-nOt ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ty-
phoid is a golden opportunity that
none should miss. The treatment is
given in three doses a week to ten
days apart. OF the hundreds of thou
| sands Of people already vaccinated no
harm has ever been reported from a
single case. The treatment further
more, is practically painless and no
| open sore results. In fact only occa-
sionally is even a drop Of blood drawn.
| The following day a place perhaps as
large as a dime will be found at the
place of vaccination to be slightly red
apd somewhat sore to the touch but
as a rule that is about all the incon-
v%enience noted. Even these slight
symptoms disappear in a day or two.
In a very few INSTANCES a slight head
ache will be noted the day following.
In many cases. however, no soreness
vaccination.
Besides the matter Of anti-typhoid
treatment there will be on exhibit
ton at the various d~ispensaries a ty-
in pictures simpler and palmer than
a book. There will also be large
health charts about the house fly and
free health literature oh many impor-
tant public health subjects. Plans
are also being made to give tree IL
Illustrated lectures on typhoid fever
and perhaps other subjects from time
to time.
