![For the year in question, however, the Registrar-General’s office does not expect to have statistics ready until the end of 1913, so that as the absence of these figures detracts from the value of a Public Health Report, I have prepared them this year as formerly. For the year 1913 it is probable that such statistics will be issued in time for inclusion into the Annual Report. Notified Cases of Infectious Disease. In Table H is shown the number of cases of infectious disease notified in Berwickshire during 1912. The cases are classified according to (a) District, (b) Nature, (c) Whether treated at home or in hospital, and (d) As to whether recovery or death resulted. Particulars concerning Pulmonary Tuberculosis are not included, that disease being considered in a separate paragraph. TABLE II.—Summary of Notifications— Berwickshire, 1912. Home. Total.
