In many communities through-
out the country a search for a cer-
tain disease is being carried on to-
day among apparently healthy
people. There Is good reason 4pr
this.
The disease Is tuberculosis and
tuberculosis often has no outward
symptoms in its early stage. People
may belosing their health and giv-
ing the disease to others before
they know they are ill.
We know there are approximate-
ly half a million people in the Unit-
ed States . suffering from active
tuberculosis. This figure is based
on careful surveys which have re-
vealed that the ratio of persons
with tuberculosis is slightly more
than nine to one.
If 5(5,000 people die -frpm tuber-
culosis a year — as they did in 1944,
the last year for which complete
statistics are available—and there
are nine cases for every death,
then 495,000 people have tubercu-
losis. About,half of these are known
to health authorities arid are under
‘medical care either in hospitals
or at hqme. This means that nearly
25.0,000 people with tuberculosis are
not known to health authorities,
are not .recei.vingg proper care and
many do not* even know” ‘they have
Because of the two-fold health
hazard of the Unknown Case of tu-
berculosis —the hazard to the in-
dividual and the hazard to the com-
munity —it is important to find
these unknown cases.
.. To find them,- X-ray examinat-
ions are being made of apparently
healthy people. X-ray pictures'- of
the- lung often reveal the' presence
of tuberculosis-before any Outward
synipt'onis appear to-warn the in-
dividual of his disease By X -1 lVing
’ people who are ,
healthy, unknown case*
culosis may be found.
With the mobile equipment, jj
day which uses mlniture film
taking o-ray pictures, the examin-
ation of groups of people —for eg- ;
ample, workers ip an industrial
plant—can be made in a renj
ably short time. Form 60 to lil
persons 'can be X-rayed in an pour
on tlie mlniture films used visit
mobile or portable.units
Mass X-raying examination*
an effective method .of finding un-
known cases of tuberculosis. Am
soon as the cases are found, steps
can be taken to provide treatment
for the individual.
