DYSENTERY PREVALENT
According to a morbidity report
were | Just released by Dr. Geo. W. Cox,
State Health Officer, dysentery in
the State of Texas shows a current
Incidence of 598 cases as compared
with a seven-year mediam of 38.
This places dysentery definitely in
the epidemic stage and Dr. Cox
urged all possible precautions to
prevent the further spread of the
disease since it is not only disabl-
ing but dangerous.
"Dysentery germs gain entrance
to the body through the mouth in
the same manner as food," Dr. Cox
said. "There they find conditions
favorable to their development and
the resulting diarrhea pain in the
abdomen, and toxemia combine to
produce a serious illness in the vic-
tim."
Dysentery germs cause inflamma- j
tion of the lining of the intestin-j
al tract which produces which pro-
duces severe pain throughout the

that it is wide-spread in the fall
and winter- months. This, no doubt,
accounts for the fact that the pres-
ent incidence is so far in excess of
the seven-year median.
"The dysentery germ is always
expelled with the excreta of the
victims," Dr. Cox said. "It is
therefore urgently necessary that
the strictest sanitary measures be
observed in the care of dysentery
patients to prevent the further
spread of this disease which is al
ways disabling and often fatal."
