FOOD HANDLING SOURCE
OF COMMUNICABLE DISEASE
In a vigorous campaign to ele-
vate the state health level by pre-
venting the spread of communi-
cable diseases which might be
transmitted by foods, the State
Department of Health is conduct-
ing training schools for food hand-
lers in many sections of Texas,
according to Dr. Geo. W. Cox,
State Health Officer.
"Food handlers are being taught
the sanitary methods of prepar-
ing, handling, and serving foods
for public consumption, Dr. Cox
said. "Actual experience has
shown that an insanitary eating
establishment is one of the surest
sources of spreading infection.
Public health is menaced by the
lack of proper sanitation in food
handling and our goal is the educa-
tion of cooks, waiters, butchers,
bakers, fountain men, and all oth-
er food handlers to such a level as
will insure the elimination of this
health hazard."
The training schools consist of
elementary courses in bacterio-
logy, communicable diseases, med-
ical zoology, foods, disinfection,
sterilization, personal hygiene,
and sanitation.
These schools for food handlers
which have been well received
wherever held may be booked in
any health unit of the State of
Texas upon request from the di-
rector of the local health unit,
addressed to Dr. Geo. W. Cox,
State Health Officer.
