Every person in tfcls province undergoing treatment for venereal disease Is protected by lavt against publicity, state* Dr. W. J. Bell, Deputy Minister of tha Depart- ment of Health in an article on the Venereal Diseases Prevention Act of Ontario; appearing In the current is- sue ot the Canadian Public Health Journal. This article written to fadlitate the co-operation existing be- tween the physicians and the Depart- ment, stresses tha fact that secrecy is legally Imposed upon the physician in such cases. The Act also provides for free treat- ment for indigent persons, for pay- ment ot physicians in such cases, for the establishment and maintenance ot clinics and for the distribution of literature and drugs to physicians. Infected persons are compelled to take treatment and continue it until declared non-infet'ive, and penalties ara provided for persons who, not be- ing physicians, administer treatment. Responsibility for the treatment of indigent persons la placed upon the municipality, through the medical of fleer of health. Penalties are pro- Tided for persons who, having rea son to believe themselves infected transmit tho infection, and any per- son accused by an infectsd person an the source of the infection may be compuiaorily examined. "The public when under an i idy constitutes a group more easily reached," Dr. Ball states. Special provisions are made to look after inmates of public institutions. Every hospital in receipt of Ontario Government aid U retiu./ed to make effective provision for the treatment of these diseases, excepting exclu- sively child-treatment and isolation hospitals.
