The remainder still remain under observation.

34 dog brains were examined by the Government Bacteriologist with the following results:-

Negative 29 Positive 5

On the Island it would appear as if the last outbreak was now over as no positive case has been detected since December 1926.

The 5 cases above have occurred in Kowloon and the New Territory. The comparatively small number of the cases and their scattered nature would seem to point to these being outlying cases of a widespread outbreak in adjacent territory. The most energetic measures practicable are being taken to deal with the situation. The campaign of dog shooting and catching throughout the year has had good results and should not only be continued but extended and intensified if possible.

In collaboration with the Government Bacteriologist experiments relative to the possible immunisation of dogs against the local strain of Rabies virus are being carried out and it is hoped to be able to conclude the experiments before the end of 1928.

Glanders:- Nil.

1st February, 1928.

Rinderpest:- 2 cases.

Anthrax :- 2 cases.
