§ Mr. Llewellynasked the Minister of Health how many deaths from poliomyelitis have occurred in Wales monthly since 1st January, 1949; and in how many cases there was no paralysis
§ Mr. BevanI regret that these figures are available only in respect of the whole calendar year. The number of persons 177W resident in Wales who died from poliomyelitis in 1949 was 21. A distinction between paralytic cases and others has only been made since 1st January, 1950, and then only as regards notifications of the disease.
