Prevention Of Diphtheria

Diphtheria is reported as ex.
listing ia more than half the coun.
ties in Kentucky. Ii is epidemic
in several of them. This is not
cause for senseless alarm but
for intelligent action. More than
half the 249 deaths which occur.
red from this disease last year
were in children whose parents
failed to call physician during
the first three days of the sore
throat. The greatest American
authority speaking of diphtheria
antitoxin says:
"When this remedy is proper
ly used on the first day of the
appearance of the membrane in
the throat, there are no deaths
from diphtheria. When delay in
its use extends to the second day,
the death rate runs from five to
ten per cent; when it extends to
the third or fourth day, it runs
up to thirty, forty and even fifty
per cent"
The following definite sugges-
tions are offered by the State
Board of Health to teachers, par.
ents or guardians for the sup.
preston Of diphtheria:
When a child has a sore throat
it should be excluded from school,
kept at home IN bed, separated
