COMPLAINT BY MAORI "TOMMY-ROT VACCINATION” A complaint that his child had been laid up with influenza after being vaccinated, and a general denuncia'ioa of "this tommy-rot vaccination” *ere received from an indignant Maori Parent by the Auckland Education *'vd this morning. The medical officer of health. Dr. Herbert Chesson, stated in a letter 'bat it was the practice in districts 'abject to typhoid to vaccinate all Maoris against the disease. By this *eans outbreaks have been prevented almost entirely. When parents object, °* eT ® r . no action is taken. ft is most unfortunate that any barent should be so ill-advised as to 'bject to the precautions taken by the apartment to check the spread of the ls aase and to protect the child acardingly," concluded Mr. Chesson's report.
