P. Wilson, local M.O.H. In recent years a method has been perfected for the prevention of Diph- theria. This consists in the injection under the skin of small doses of about eight drops. of a preparation known as Diphtheria Toxoid. Three doses are necessary given at intervals of three weeks. A small percentage of children have a natural immunity a- gainst Diphtheria and consequently would not develop the disease even though exposed to it, in such cases it is unnecessary to administer toxoid. Diphtheria Is A By means of a test known as the Schick test it may be determined whether or not a person is susceptible to diphtheria. This consists in the injection into the skin of the forearm of a minute quantity of diphtheria tox- oid. If a positive re-action occurs it shows that the person is liable to con1 tract diphtheria if exposed to it. This reaction appears slowly as a trace of redness at the site of the injection in from twelve to twentyâ€"four hours and reaches its height as a small area of redness about the third or fourth day, gradually disappearing as a brownish area which persists for three or four weeks. If the skin remains normal it is an indication that the person will not contract diphtheria. The Schick test material and the toxoid maybe used by any qualified physician. This method of prevention if adopt- ' ed universally would practically elimi- ‘ nate diphtheria. The provincial Dept. ‘ of health supply the material and I w. G.
