* For Aden only.
The rate of protection, though higher in Aden, Muskat, Khelat and Bushire
is calculated on the population of Aden only,—for other circles it is not available.
The next highest ratio is 41.45 in Cutch and lowest in the Presidency Circle
On the whole 33.35 persons of all ages per every 1,000 of population against
33.25 last year were primarily vaccinated successfully.
Infants successfully vac-
cinated as compared with
those available at 31 per mille
of population.
21. At the rate of 31 per mille of population, and on the total population
of 25,615,528, there were successfully vaccinated 75.32
out of every 100 infants available against 75.05 in
1888-89. The subjoined table shows the number of
infants protected out of those available for vaccination
at the rate of 31 per mille of population, by districts
and circles, as likewise the protection of children between 1 and 6 years old :—

| Description | The Vaccination collection consists of 66 volumes dating from 1856 to 1933. Reports show how vaccination against smallpox was implemented in India. They reveal the shift from variolation, improved vaccination techniques, logistics of lymph supply, funding and staffing. They explore how the local population viewed and resisted western vaccination. |
