Leaving The Hospital Sooner “How long will I have to stay in here, doctor?” The physician who Sends his patient to the hospital hears this question every time he ?=-■ decides to separate a child from his parents, a wife from her hus band, an executive from hit business. Fortunately the answer he most frequently gives is now closer to one week than to two. Since 1932 before sulfa drugs and ♦—— ■ -- ... .. antibiotic's were available.for the treatment of more than one hun dred different infections - the average hospital stay per patient has been reduced from thirteen days to ten. For the cure of ear, nose and throat infections, which still ac count for one tenth of all hospital admissions, the hospital days re quired have been cut even more drastically, from more than four days to less than two. The word quarantine has vir tually disappeared from our vocabularies during the past 20 years. Scarlet fever, which used to require a month’s isolation of the family afflicted, has virtually disappeared. The streptococcus germ which caused it fell victim to penicillin and the wide range antibiotics. Once dreaded pneumonia is now, more often than not, a dis ease that-doesn't require hos pitalization except for the very old and the very young. Anyone with pneumonia twenty years ago spent an average of five Weeks in the hospital. Today the corner drug store stocks half a dozen drugs, any of vhich can have the patient out of bed with-, in three or four-days. If the Jiatient does have to go to the lospital, it’s for one week or two instead of five. The average bill for a case of pneumonia today isr sls to S3O for doctors’ calls and antibiotics - instead of S3OO to S4OO in cash for doctors, nurses, oxygen tents, and a hospital room. The average hospital today, ac- EXECUTOR’S NOTICE NORTH CAROLINA YANCEY COUNTY Having qualified as Executor of the Estate of Turner M.
