TREATMENTS
ON TYPHOID GIVEN
Clinics in Rural Sections
Completed by Health De-
partment Staff

Approximately 1000 persons have
taken the anti-typhoid vaccine dur
ing the past four weeks since clinics
have been held in various points over
the county by two staffs of the Vance
County Health Department, accord
ing to a report today from the office
of Dr. A. D. Gregg, health officer.
This means 5000 doses of the serum
have been given, since the treatment
consists of an injection once a week
for three weeks.
A total of 738 have been tabulated
as completing the three treatments.
including $50 white and 1873 colored
individuals, DR.. Gregg said. He est
mated that those treated this week,
and not included in the compilations,
would easily run the total to 1000.
Although this week ends the vista
tons to the numerous points over
the county, the service will continue
to be offered free at the haelth de-
partment offices throughout the sum-
mer on Tuesday afternoons and Sat
urday mornings.
In addition to the typhoid treat
ments, a few children who did no.

smallpox. About 80 younger children
also have been given the diphtheria
toxoid at various points over the
county.
Every summer the health depart
ment staff makes it's rounds of the
county holding the anti-typhoid
clinics, going into the rural areas so
as to make it as convenient as pos
sible for every one to acquire this
immunity from a dreaded disease.
Over long period of years not more
than three or four deaths from
typhoid have occurred in this county.
and these were persons who had not
had the treatment Seldom is mora
than one or two cases discovered in
