Pate Sees Strike
AS Health Huzurd

A definite health hazard" Is
raised by the continuation of
the transit strike. DR.. John r.
Pate chief of the Health Depart
ment Bureau of Disease Control.
In a letter to Chairman Nicely
of the Senate District Commit
tee, DR.. Pate voiced concern over
the inability of many patients
to pay cab fare to get to and
from hospitals and clinics.
He mentioned specifically tu-
lbercular patients, released from
hospitals as on-infectious but
who must report for periodic
checkups. DR.. Pate said many
such patients have not been
coming in, obviously lacking
either private cars or cab fare
Should they break down and
become infectious again because
of the lack of drugs. it certainly
will create a serious health haz-
ard" he said.
