Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Board of Health of the Department of Health of the City of New York: For the Year Ending December 31, 1902 Hon. Seth Low, Mayor of the City of New York: Sir - In accordance with the provisions of section 1168, chapter 466, Laws of 1901, the Board of Health has the honor to submit the following report of the operations of the Department of Health for the year ended December 31, 1902: Public Health. The condition of the public health during the year, in spite of the steady increase in population and the continued congestion in the more crowded districts, has been better than for any year since the organization of this Department. The death rate has fallen to 18.75 per thousand as compared with 20.00 in 1901 and 20.57 in 1900. The deaths numbered 68,085 as compared with 70.720 in 1901 and 70,872 in 1900. The death rate in the section corresponding to the former City of New York was 19.49 per thousand, not only the lowest on record, but not approached in any year since 1814, which year presented an unusually low death rate, 19.66; but the latter has always been questioned by statisticians on the ground that in the first half of the nineteenth century records of mortality were loosely kept. The death rate of 17.88 in the Borough of Brooklyn is the lowest in that section since 1866, and in all probability the lowest ever recorded in the history of the City of Brooklyn.
