(a) Food hygiene:

Wash food thoroughly and cook food adequately to remove and destroy germs. Consume food as soon as possible after preparation to avoid multiplication of germs. All left-overs should be

re-cooked before eating. Any suspected unsound food should be rejected.

(e) Immunization:

Cholera and typhoid may be prevented

by immunization. Inoculations are obtainable free

of charge in Government vaccination centres, clinics and hospitals. However, it has been found that anti-cholera inoculation is not entirely effective and it is therefore still essential to pay special attention to food hygiene in order to prevent this dangerous disease.
