[Experience with the elimination of a cholera focus in a psychiatric clinic and the measures for its prevention].
The epidemic process of cholera in a mental-hospital setting is to a great extent influenced by specific factors. In view of a danger of cholera being brought into a mental in-patient facility the authors insist, based on their own experience, that in summer and autumn seasons in South regions and urban settlements with unstable, in respect of cholera, epidemic situation, not only patients with intestinal disfunction be examined for cholera but all those individuals to be managed at above facility. It is all-important for a mental hospital to have a plan at their disposal of primary antiepidemic measures to be instituted in case dangerous infections will pose too difficult a problem to deal with, with pharmacy being envisaged, provided with all the stores required.
