INFECTIOUS DISEASES HOSPITALS.
There are two Infectious Diseases Hospitals—one maintained by the Government and the other by the Tung Wah Charity. They are situated at the Western end of the City of Victoria in adjoining compounds. There is no Infectious Diseases Hospital in Kowloon.
THE GOVERNMENT INFECTIOUS DISEASES HOSPITAL.
This was originally a Police Station, but was adapted as a hospital and has accommodation for 26 beds in six wards.
During the year the hospital was under the charge of Dr. T. W. Ware. Except when there are patients occupying it there is only a skeleton staff on the premises.
During the year only 4 cases of Small-pox were treated and one case of Chicken-pox sent in as suspected Small-pox. In addition one case of Leprosy was treated.
