HC Deb 16 May 1935 vol 301 c1904W
Mr. GROVES

asked the Minister of Health what precautions are taken by medical officers of health to make sure that they themselves are free from infection by the hæmolytic streptococcus and cannot themselves carry the contagion?

Sir H. YOUNG

I am advised that the best, and perhaps the only precautions that can be taken are those measures for preserving surgical cleanliness that are familiar to medical practitioners.
