                         Respiratory Disease was up considerably and also rheumatic complaints. Malaria was further
                         reduced, and fractures and injuries due to road accidents was also markedly down. V. D.
                         was reduced, also Dysentery while Nephritis was considerably raised.
                         Heat exhaustion for the first time came on acutely in July and August resulting in five deaths
                         which is not usual.

                         Septic complaints were considerably raised because of the hot weather. Malaria remained
                         unchanged. Respiratory disease was doubled, while worms were halved and venereal disease
                         was reduced to the lowest figure ever attained.
