An examination of the subjoined statistics of deaths occurring in each Health District for the past four years will reveal the localities in which further measures of prevention are desirable :-

To make the above figures tally with the Table of total deaths 12 deaths of Non-Chinese must be added for 1904, 4 such deaths for 1905, 13 such deaths for 1906, and 18 such deaths for 1907.
These figures show that there is still work to be done within the City, especially in Districts 2 and 9, while the work that has already been done needs constant supervision. Kowloon and the outlying villages are necessarily so scattered that is will take some years to produce as marked a reduction in the Malaria mortality there as we have already obtained
