An- proXimately 900 of these have been vaccinated or revaccinated. The New Britain Health Department has ad vised vaccination of all school child ren.
 Another contact was found. who was held in isolation during the in- euhation period. During this time he was vaeeinated once which was not successful. He was again vaeeinated five days afterwards which was sue eessful. He developed a very mild case of smallpox. The reason for the mildness of his case is probably his successful vaccination. This Is ample proof of the efficiency of isolation of contacts and of the value of vaecina- ton even after a known exposure.
