WARNING
DEATH FROM SPOTTED FEVER

DEATH FROM SPOTTED FEVER
One death from Rocky Mountain
Spotted Fever, sometimes called Spot
ted Fever or Tick Bite Fever, occurred
in the county on Friday, June 18th.
Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever Is
caused from the bite of an infected
tick and the State Department issues
the following precautions and the
Health Department hopes that the
people of the county will heed these
warnings:
l. Avoid ticks. Be particularly
careful when walking along trails
through the woods.
g. Remove ticks when found on
the person or on animals, as
speedily as possible, but take great
care in doing so, that the ticks are
not crushed between the fingers.
If the insect is already embedded in
the flesh, use forceps or wear gloves.
A slight break in the skin will serve
as a portal of entry for the infec-
tious virus.
3. Cut out underground and weeds;
cut grass very short around dwell
lings, along paths, near bathing
pools and shores. Rmove or burn
debris.
4. Wear suitable clothing in going
through tlck-lnIeSCeu areas.
5. On hikes or camping trips, or in
heavily tick-infested areas, both
clothing and body should be care
fully inspected, at least twice daily,
but especially on retiring.
g. Since tick-infested dogs are po-
tential carriers of the infection, it
is not only important that dogs be
kept free from ticks, as advised in
item 2, but care should also be
taken to prevent dogs, from sec
lions in which the disease has APP
peared, from roaming at large and
from invading other counties. Per-
sons who take their dogs from one
section to another, should be espe-
cially careful to see that their dogs
are free from ticks.
The ticks that carry the infection
responsible for "Tick-Bite Fever" are
particularly active in the early spring.
Fortunately not all ticks are infected,
but it is better to regard them all as
potntially dangerous, disease bearing
insects and to act accordingly.
