On the question of scarlet fever

The work we have done is not a mass observation based on statistical data, but represents a type of tentative experience conducted under certain conditions. We set the Disk'a reaction and with its help traced the effect of vaccination in scarlet fever foci. The examined material is not large, since there is currently no large outbreak of scarlet fever in Ufa. The observations mainly cover children in schools and kindergartens from 3 to 15 years old. At 28 in these children institutions there were cases of scarlet fever; their number was not significant, but some of them were fatal in the shortest (3 days) period. In the presence of such conditions and the absence of special detachments, the setting of the river. Dick'a before vaccination could be produced only in children small institutions. In schools with more than 200-300 students, where the production of p. Dick'a would have required a lot of time and thus would have delayed vaccination, we decided to put p. Dick'a simultaneously with the latter, especially since it is based on positive p. Dick'a at vaccination of children this time was not supposed. In schools and kindergartens vaccination was carried out in children whose parents expressed their consent.
