Counties Have 30
In TB Hospitals
There are at present 30 pa
tients hospitalized with tuber
culosis from Greenwood and Lau
rens Counties, according to fig
ures furnished by the two Coun
ty Health Departments and re
leased by the Tuberculosis and
Health Association.
Of those hospitalized, 21 are
patients in the South Carolina
Sanitorium, tax supported tuber
culosis hospital at State Park, 4
are patients in the Veterans Hos
pital at Oteen, North Carolina, 1
in Fitzsimmons General Hospital
in Denver, 1 in Veterans Len-
wood Hospital in Augusta and 3
in South Carolina State Hospital
in Columbia.
The local figures point up the
fact that tuberculosis is more
prevalent among men than wom
en, and that the Negro race is
more susceptible to tuberculosis
than the white race. Classified
according to sex, there are 23
males and 6 females. Of the 30
hospital patients, 14 are white, 15
are Negro with race and sex un
known in one instance.
It is generally conceded that
tuberculosis respects no age but
attacks all ages. The ages of pa
tients range from 16 to 71 with
one unknown.
Eighteen of the cases were ad
mttted io the hospital during
1963, seven were admitted in 1962
and two in i960. Only three been
hospitalized longer than that.
These admission dates indicate
that most patients can return to
normal life after treatment with
modern drugs.
