Under the caption The Work of
Twelve Years the report says:
That our friends may be enabled TO
form an opinion of the work done in
it's existence, we will put in a nut
shell, SO to speak, the main points.
We have treated from Sept 8, 1904,
to Dec. 81, 1915, 2,451 patients.
1t will be interesting to our friends
to know that out of the 2,451 patients
treated in the IL years, there Were
2, 004 males and AT females, or about
four times as many males as females.
The greatest number OF cases are
between the ages of Fl apd 80. Such
cases were admitted 1,150. The next
In number are those between the ages
of 81 and 40, of whom 752 were ad-
mitted.
The number of single and married in
the sanatorium were about equal |
There were Lis single and 1898 mar |
ried.
AS to the country Of birth, Russia, |
as a matter of course, leads, with 1,716 |
ca ses and the next number come from |
those born in the United States. II.
AS to what occupation gives the |
greatest number of tuberculous among |
Jews it is easy to guess. Out OF the |
3 ,451 patients treated in the sanatorium |
500, or over 20 per cent, were in the |
and allied trades.
1t is also not very difficult for any |
one who knows anything about social |
and industrial conditions to guess ]
which of the states in the union fur I
nishes the greatest number of cases. |
New York stands at the head of the |
list with 1,162 cases, of which 1,09S |
cases came from Greater New York |
In other words, nearly so per cent. of |
all our cases came from the state of /
New York. The following states fur |
nished each their quota:
Illinois 25S, Pennsylvania 1872, Ohio |
l02, Missouri "a, New Jersey 85. Mas
