      Cost of Vaccination. (Appendix I, Statement II.)

18.    The cost of vaccination came to Rs. 6,18,353 against
Rs. 6,52,367 in the previous year, a decrease of Rs. 34,014. The
decrease is due to less supplementary bills, retirement of senior
vaccinators whose posts were filled up by men on less pay,
curtailment of vaccination establishment, and less travelling by
the Assistant Director of Public Health, Southern Registration
District.

The cost of each successful case of vaccination was Rs. 1-1-1
against Rs. 1-3-0 in the previous year.
