HC Deb 09 March 1939 vol 344 c2372W
Mr. Viant

asked the Minister of Health whether he has any information regarding smallpox on the British freighter "Rugeley," at Victoria, British Columbia; how many cases have occurred; and whether they were vaccinated and re-vaccinated persons?

Mr. Elliot

I have seen references in the Press to this matter, but I have no detailed information of the kind requested by the hon. Member. I will, however, make inquiries and communicate with him.
