Diphtheria
By DR.. Eugene o. Chimene, Health
Officer, Greenyille, s. G..

Onlcer, Greenyllle, >. T..
With an increase in the number of
cases of diphtheria reported from
practically all parts of the state it is
up to parents to inform themselves of
the nature of this disease and the
methods for its prevention.
Diphtheria, or membraneouS Group,
is an acute infectious disease that at
tacks usually the throat. 1t sometimes
causes the child very little discom-
fort and the disease may be fairly well
developed before a physician is called.
Too often the case is regarded by the
parent as an attack of simple sore
throat, but all sore throats are dan
gerous, and the possibility of dip
iberia should be kept in mind until
proven otherwise.
Observation of large number of
children has shown that only about
40 per cent of them will take dip
iberia, even if exposed to it. So the
first step in the prevention of dip
liberia is to have your children, espec-
tally those between the ages of two
and five, tested, and if the test proves
that they are susceptible, have them
inoculated against diptheria. This
can be done easily and cheaply by
your family physician or local health

for period of about five years.
When a case of diptheria develops
in family the patient should be iso.
lated at once; all eating utensils, bed
linen, etc., should be boiled each time
they are used by the other members
of the family. Children under four.
teen years, who have been exposed to
the disease, should be given sufficient
antitoxin to protect them for three OF
four weeks. Especial caution should
be observed by the person caring fol
the case so that the disease is moi
| carried to the rest of the family
Where possible cap and gown shoulc
be worn in the sick room, and the
hands thoroughly scrubbed with lyso
solution each time upon leaving The
room.
The patient should not be allowed
to get up except upon the doctors or
ders, for dangerous complications may
result from getting up too soon. Only
after the doctor has examined tn,
child's throat and found it free from
| germs should the child be allowed Il
go out of the house or play with 9th
er children.
