Clean Bill of Health Reported for

No Whooping Cough, Measles,
Diphtheria, Scarlet Fever or
Influenza, Says Dr. Symington
Dr. J. Symington, county health of
ficer, reports that during the week
ending March 28, there were no
cases of whooping cough, measles,
diphtheria, scarlet fever, smallpox,
typhoid fever or influenza reported.
This means that Moore county has
at present practically a clear bill and
is free from the above reportable di
seases. There are some cases of
whooping cough in the very southern
part of tte county but no new cases
were reported in the week referred to.
In the same week there were 162
cases reported for the rest of the
state. In the w'estern part of the
county there is one case of measles,
but no cases were reported in the
above week. In Durham there are
269 cases of measles and 43 others in
the county, making 312 altogether.
In Johnson county there are 49, in
Edgecombe county 40 and in Rocky
Mount 179, and a few cases in some
other counties, all making a total of i
814 cases throughout the state. We ,
are fortunate in Moore county in'
having very few’ diphtheria cases this
winter and the season has been free
of typhoid and smallpox completely.
These three latter diseases have been
controlled largely by improved sani
tation and extensive vaccinations. Ex
cept for the nonimmunizable diseases
such as whooping cough and measles
which cannot be controlled except by
quarantine, there have been practi
cally no epidemics this winter, and
children have been able to attend
school more regularly because of the
freedom from epidemics caused by
these diseases.
Research is being carried out in the
laboratories for the development’ of
vaccine for measles, scarlet fever, and
influenza and let us hope that the
day is not very distant when w’e shall
be able to practically guarantee free
dom from these diseases as we are
at presen^ able to do as regards
typhoid, smallpox and diphtheria.
