In the last issue, Dr. Afif Mufarrij began his profound scientific study of the battles between man and tuberculosis, ever since the germ of this dangerous disease was discovered.
Dr. Mufarrij continues this study of his through successive issues of "The Woman's Voice," showing how to guard against this deadly malady.
And "The Woman's Voice," in presenting these studies of Dr. Mufarrij's, is happy to present a weighty scientific study by one of our brilliant physicians, on one of the gravest of subjects.
"The Editors"
Now, our position toward this disease being what we have indicated, we are bound, in fighting and repelling it, to resort to the following means:
1 — Improving the economic condition among the poor classes, so that sufficient food may be available to them; limiting the hours of work; and making easier the building of dwellings according to sanitary principles.
2 — Founding medical centers in the various districts, so that every individual, whatever his material condition, may easily obtain consultations, health advice, and the necessary aid when in need.
3 — Founding a sufficient number of free sanatoriums, so that treatment may be within reach of any son of the nation whosoever.
4 — Making the public understand the true nature of the disease and its social importance, explaining the ways of infection and of prevention, and exerting the utmost effort to spread full and ample explanations.
5 — Following scientific plans in producing precise statistics that acquaint us fully with the state of sickness and of health. Thus we know the number of cases and of deaths, and their fall or rise, which lets us be certain of the results of the methods followed in fighting any disease whatever; so we know
where we stand, and are guided to the weak spots in our health apparatus; so we avoid error and take the right course, and thereby work to raise the health level in the country.
6 — Using the modern scientific method that makes it easy to discover the disease at its very beginning. If we adopt the points named above, we secure, first, the pre
vention of infection of others, and second, the possibility of complete cure. And nothing serves this end better than X-ray photography. Nor should anyone be exempted from it, not even those who show every appearance of good
health, with nothing in their looks to betray any disorder of constitution.
