Bakelite AC-DU. (By Oregon State Board of Health) “One of the principal objectives ■ of programs directed toward the control of syphilis is to bring about a reduction in the attack rate of the disease With the control methods now available this can be best ac complished by decreasing the aver age period of infectivity, through early anti-syphilitic treatment of ' persons newly acquiring syphilis. (Establishment of easily accessible, well managed syphilis clinics may encourage infected persons to seek i treatment earlier than they other- ' wise would, but a serious obstacle । to complete success of this method । is offered by tiie fact that many in- I fected persons are completely un- | aware of the presence of syphilitic I lesions during a period in which I these lesions are most highly infec tive This is particularly true with regard to females. Moreover, in fectious cases of syphilis occur prin- ! cipally among youths and young ! adults and among the least well in formed members of the community. It is of the utmost importance. therefore, . that the syphilis control program should include adequate facilities for seeking out persons who are potential । sources of infec- tion in i order that they may be brought under medical care and rendered non-infectious as prompt- ly as possible. "The most practical method of discovering potential sources of in- feet ion investigation, which may be defined as the at tempt to identify and bring under medical observation persons who have been in intimate contact with an individual known to have syph ilis.” In Oregon contacts of all early cases of syphilis applying to health departments for treatment are in vestigated. Facilities are available in all full time health departments I for private physicians who wish aid I in searching out their case contacts I and in returning their delinquent patients to treatment. Tne eradication ot syphilis and gonorrhea must be accomplished । largely by the private physician. It is he to whom the infected per son comes with his sore or dis charge. and it is he who must ren der the diseased person noninfec- tious. The health department can only help. It should provide more freely available drugs, diagnostic services, follow-up for delinquents and cased contacts, treatment of the indigent and an educational pro gram. By the combined efforts of the private physician and the health departments, syphilis can be wiped out. The occupation of venereal dis ease cases in Oregon for 1938 by per cent are as follows: Labor. 25; skilled labor. 11; house wives, 11; loggers. 7; farmers, 7; un employed. 5.6; truck drivers. 5; stu dents. 4.2; clerks, 3.5; prostitutes, 3; salesmen. 3; seamen, 2; waitress’. 2; housework. 2; CCC, 2; stenograph ers. 2; fishermen. 1; painters, 1; school teachers. 1; beauticians, 1; miscellaneous, 3. From the above statistics it is ap parent that the major venereal dis ease load in Oregon is among the low paid group of laborers, unskill- I ed workers and housewives, and the information concerning these I diseases much reach this group. .Appeal to Women for Help “In seeking the help of all the people in wiping out the scourge of syphilis from American homes and life, there must be full know- ; ledge of the necessity of continued ; treatment and observation by per-; sons qualified for this work, not by ' quacks and drug clerks.
