INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC.

AT' WAIROA
• WAIROA This Day. It is doubtful if the epidemic is yet reached the climax. In all there haio been about thirty deaths, mainly natives who are being heavily hit. The few Europeans deaths are mostly those who avoided the hospital or the emergency hospitals, district schools and racecourse. Europeans arc doing good work though understaffed. An excellent system of distribution of food has be-on organised. The natives arc in the greatest trouble owing to tolningaism. One European and one half-caste died yester- j day. The new cases are mostly coming from the country.

Russell in reference to precautions against! the introduction of disease from oversea vessels, that after conferring with the Chairman of the Hospital Board that if the Minister of Health will not protect this community it will become his duty as Mayor to take adequate steps to afford the protection that is due, and 1 shall not hesitate to take any steps that circumstances demand. I look for support from all sections of the community to prevent a repetition of the disastrous epidemic or j any kind of sickness . |
