Excerpt from Hydatid Disease, With Special Reference to Its Prevalence in AustraliaI venture to h0pe that the facts thus elicited may prove of practical value in diminishing the serious prevalence of Hydatid disease in some of the Australian colonies. To know the extent of an evil, and its chief causes, are the most important steps towards its prevention. How very grave the extent of the disease has been - for example in Victoria - is shown by the facts, that during the fourteen years, 1868 to 1881 inclusive, 500 persons were known to have died of it, and that over cases were recorded in the returns forwarded to me from the various hospitals of the colony. In my opinion it would be quite reasonable to estimate, that during the last twenty years from to persons, at least, have suffered from Hydatid disease in this one colony.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
