ANNUAL REPORT, MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH "| beg to submit my annual report upon the health and sanitary conditions of our community for th e year ending December 31, 1965. The health of the community has been good throug out the year except for influenza - like illness wide spread through the district since last Fall. There has been only the usual amount of childhood infec- tious disease . Examination of new pupils was done at both grade schools as in the past and the program of immuniza- tion for all pupils was carried out against polio, diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough. Mrs.Lois Hopper, the school nurse, made frequent visits to both schools for the purpose of vision testing, hear- ing testing, immunization and search for health ab- normalities. Immunization of infants and pre- school children was done at the doctors' offices as usual. A few adults have kept up with their polio immunization. There were minor outbreaks of Measles, German Measles and Mumps during the year but no cases of polio or whooping cough were seen and only one case of Scarlet Fever occurred. All schools were found to be in excellent sanitary condition. All five local establishments selling meals have been inspected and found to be in good sanitary condition. Bacteria counts on plates, glasses and cutlery were satisfactory. The North Camp dorms, dining hall, kitchen and food storage were inspected at intervals and found to be good as were the Motor Hotel facilities. All water samples submitted from the town water supply have been reported "A" by the Provincial Laboratory. The Town's three sewage systems were inspected during the year by a Provincial sanitary Inspector and found to be working well. During 1965 there were 38 births to residents of Terrace Bay and a total of 95 births at our hospital . There was one newborn death, two adult deaths: and no stillborn infants. Respectfully submitted, D.J.M.McCausland, M.D. Medical Officer of health.
