Medical Science Slowly Mastering Many Diseases Death Rate Has Been Lowered Considerably: in the Past " Half Century ~ That the progress. of science dur- ing the last fifty years has been of real benetit to mankind Is" ndw shown by "a review recently given by Sir Edward Mellanby, Secre- tary of the Medical. Research Council, England, Even In the year 1900 typhoid fever killed over 6, 000 people in Great Britain. Nowa- days even a mild epidemic causes a public scandal, The last fifty years has, In fact, witnessed a ser- ies of triumphs in the medical tleld about whose value to society as a whole there can be no doubt what ever. Not 'so very long ago pulmonary tuberculosis was responsible for nearly 3,000 deaths annually in ev- ery 100,000 of the population. In 1937 there were only 690 deaths . per 100,000. Diphtheria is being rapidly overcome by suitable pro- ventive inoculation. The death rate in many large American and Canadian towns has been reduced to minimal propor tions; and in Hamilton, Ontario, a town of 175,000 inhabitants, not a single case has been diagnosed in the last five years. Discovery of Insulin In the field of blo-chemistry also there have been equally beneficent advances, says Sir Edward Mellan- by. The discovery of insulin has saved thousands of lives in the case of dfaf®tes and: enabled many more thousands of sufferers to lead comfortable and active lives. The samo is true in respect of pernicious gnagmia, thanks to the discovery and application of liver and certain stomach extracts. More recently still the discovery of the sulphanilamide group ot the compounds has brought a new and already proven weapon into the field against a large Bronp of bac- _ torfa-produced diseases. surgery Again, In the field of surgery, particularly of the brain, chest and thyroid, there have.been similar triumphs.
