Ventilation is very good all over ship and the cubic space allowed to each patient is therefore liberal. On emergency over 110 could be accommodated giving each 600 feet on upper deck and 900 on lower deck. During the summer months ventilation of the lower deck is not good owing to winds being light or absent.
This, of course, does not include the large air-space above the private wards and dispensary, passages, &c.
† Including sliding shutters above private wards. In addition to all there is an open space of 4 inches between the side and roof of ship all round.
