Generally speaking children of school age represent one fifth of the total population; this gives a figure of 1,750, and it would be seen that 1,045 children in the Urban District have received the primary course of immunization, Moreover, 139 children received booster doses during the year, to ensure their continuing immunity fron infection. Heedless to say, a great proportion of this work has been done by the fanily doctors, and I an very grateful for their assistance in this natter. / '' / / / /](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b30234426_0016.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
