§ Mr. Viantasked the Minister of Helath how many children who had been immunised at Accrington subsequently developed diphtheria; and whether there have been any fatal cases in immunised children?
§ Mr. BernaysI am informed by the Town Council that during the period for which records of immunisation are available, that is from November, 1935, onwards, no child in Accrington who had been immunised and had subsequently given a negative reaction to the Schick test is known to have developed diphtheria. The second part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
