The Tung Wah Infectious Diseases Hospital.
50. This is an Infectious Diseases Hospital run in connection with the Tung Wah. The accommodation is good, with plenty of room and the wards detached and connected by covered ways. All cases of smallpox are treated by Chinese herbalists because of lack of facilities for treating the disease on Western lines and there are no quarters for nurses.
51. There are thirty iron beds, but as many more patients could be taken in on bed boards. At present only smallpox cases apply for admission.
52. Seventy-six cases were admitted there in the year. Forty-four died. One case remained over from 1931.
53. Though normally only smallpox patients are sent to this Hospital, it was employed during the months of August and September for cholera cases. The Tung Wah Hospital then supplied the whole staff and assisted the Government to fight the disease.
