It is about 100 kilometres west-northwest of St. John's. **South Dildo** is a neighbouring unincorporated community.

## History

Dildo's history goes back to 2000 BC, when Maritime Archaic aboriginal people lived at Anderson's Cove. By 700 AD, the Dorset culture was on Dildo island. In 1613, the Beothuks, who were living on Dildo Island at this time. Henry Crout met them, traded with them, and left gifts. In 1711, the people of Trinity Bay were ordered by Governor Crow to leave their homes during the winter, to defend themselves against the French who burned their houses. Dildo Island was one of the places designated for this purpose. The town of Dildo was created in the late 1700s and settled to use the marine resources such as fish (mostly cod), whales and seals.

## All Saints' Anglican Church

The first church was built in 1878. It was a simple structure with no tower. It was  wide by  long. It could hold 250 people. It was heated by two coal stoves, one at each end, which shared a chimney. This church served the community until 1964 when the present (larger) building was constructed.

## Present

Dildo has a fast-growing tourist industry. It has picturesque scenery, several bed and breakfasts, places to eat, the Dildo Museum interpretive centre, the Historic Dildo Days celebration in August, boat tours, the Society of United Fishermen, the Lions centre, several heritage structures, walking trails, many businesses and road sign souvenirs.

Dildo has been in many media outlets. It was on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's _On the Road Again_ and _Land and Sea_. It was also on a live radio broadcast from the interpretation centre. In August 2006, Dildo was the subject of the "What the...?" segment on the Australian television talk show _Rove Live_. The town is mentioned in the song "A Night in Dildo" by The Arrogant Worms.

## South Dildo

South Dildo is an unincorporated community. In 2021, 195 people lived there. At the beginning of the 20th century, South Dildo had lumbering work. It supplied a schooner to the Labrador fishery.

ICD

The **International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems** (also known as **ICD**) is a list of codes that classify diseases and medical problems. A special, unique code is given to:
- Every medical condition (including mental health problems)
- Specific symptoms, if it is not clear what condition is causing the symptom. (For example, if a person has a cough, but the doctor does not know why, he would just use the ICD code for "Cough".)
- Changes in the body, or test results that are not normal (if it is not clear what condition is causing these changes).
- Injuries or illnesses that are caused by things outside of the body (for example, broken bones, burns, and poisonings)
- Social issues that may cause health problems (for example, if a person's job causes health risks, or if the person's health is at risk because of poverty)

ICD is published by the World Health Organization. One of the ICD's goals is to make sure that different doctors - and different countries - are using the same diagnoses. This makes it easier to compare how diseases affect different countries.

The ICD has been changed and updated many times. The most recent edition is the ICD-11. ICD-11 has been adopted by the World Health Assembly of WHO for use starting  1 January 2022 It has been revised using Web 2.0.
