HC Deb 20 November 1919 vol 121 c1174W
Mr. GRUNDY

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that at the present time infectious diseases are spreading in London because the patients cannot be isolated; and what steps he is taking in the matter?

Dr. ADDISON

The statement and figures which I handed in on the 18th instant in reply to the hon. Member's question on the same subject showed that the matter is well in hand; and there seems no reason for thinking that any abnormal spreading of infections diseases is taking place, or that there is any such shortage of beds as to have that effect.
