CAUSES OF TYPHOID

5. Causes of Typhoid Fever.-Typhoid fever is caused by infection which reaches the human body by being swallowed. The infection has it's origin in the excreta (stools and urine) from the bodies of infected persons. The infection may be spread by fingers, flies, foods, water or anything else contaminated in the slight est degree with human excreta. Accord ing to the evidence the greastest single source of typhoid infection perennially distributed in Birmingham is the open, insanitary privies. of which it is esti- mated there are 5000 within the city linn its. The prompt correction of these in sanitary conditions appears to be the most important single sanitary measure needed in the city of Birmingham.
