Dr. Syhes Reports Tu In Surry County During Year 1938 In submitting a comprehensive report of the work of the Surry county health department for the year 1938, Dr. R. J. Sykes, head of the county health department, reports only two epidemics dur ing the year which included 942 reported cases of measles and 254 of whooping cough. No deaths resulted from measles and only two from whooping cough. Sixteen cases of diphtheria re sulted in only one death. These could have been prevented. Dr. Sykes said, by the immunization of these children at the age of six months. Forty-three mild cases of scarlet fever were re ported. Not a single case of typhoid fever originated in Surry county during the year, a record never before equalled, and due perhaps to the regular anti-typhoid clinics each week and to improved sani tary conditions in general. Not a case of smallpox has been reported since 1932. Regarding acute contagions only two cases of epidemic men ingitis, resulting in one death, and t"'o cases of infftitilf paraly sis with no deaths were reported. The venereal disease program, one in which Dr. Sykes has wag ed a constant fight, brought the best results of any year since it was launched. Final records of 1938 show 114 new admissions to medical service. 9,338 clinic visits, 7,593 syphilitic treatments. Night clinics established in September for those unable to attend day clinics brought gratifying re sponse. Aid received during the year from federal and state govern ments for venereal disease con trol has given this department a clinician, drugs, supplies and equipment which were needed. Considerable progress was made in the tuberculosis program and plans have been completed for two yearly adult clinics, in February and July, respectively. Five hundred forty-one patients attended the 1938 clinics and 529 received X-rays or were fluoro scoped. Twenty-three were ad mitted from Surry to the state sanatorium. A total of 1,366 persons were vaccinated against smallpox; 2,- 865 were given anti-typhoid inoc ulation; 793 young children were immunized against diphtheria. Three pre-natal clinics were conducted in the county, partic ularly for expectant mothers not financially able to have proper medical care. Three hundred eighty-two visits were made to these clinics and 703 field visits to ante partum cases. A birth control program start ed late in the year on a small scale resulted in eleven admis sions to this service. The absence of the health offi cer for the pursuing of post graduate work and the illness of the acting health officer, inter fered seriously witii the pre school hygiene program, hence there were only 484 visits to med ical conferences. In this school hygiene service, 14,731 children were inspected by nurses and 478 examined by the physician. The lack of a dental program is a hindrance to the work in the schools. Dr. Sykes stated. Six hundred thirty examina tions were given to milk handlers, t&tion ... take a pleasant swallow of Thoxine ... another minute your throat begins to fed relieved and comfortable.

Dr. Sykes, in behalf of the county health department, ex pressed profound appreciation for the hearty co-operation of the medical profession, county and' town officials and citizens of the county in carrying along the health program during the year.
