[There were 13 cases chicken pox, 13 | measles, 6 mumps, 6 whooping cough, [8 erysipelas and 1 diphtheria. | While Spanish Influenza is not a | reportable disease under the rules of |the State Board of Health, there is {no question but that it is the w scourge that our town weve Iperienced. Counting the mild cases |as well as the severe ones Mount Joy Borough must have had between 400 and 500 since October 1 and there are still a few cases among us. Be- —Jsides the fatal cases in the town sev- |eral patients from here were taken to Lancaster hospitals where they died. Of course the fatal cases were complicated with other diseases. While influenza is not classed as a regular reportable disease, during the greater part of October the State Board required daily reports of its ravages to be made, and after the first meeting of the local Board in October daily informal meetings were held and such actions taken as were deemed necessary, of which your body has already been advised. The Borough made no appropria- tion to the Board this year.
