SUPPLIES OF VACCINE.
Per Press Association. WELLINGTON, May 4. For some time the Health Department has maintained a liberal suppl}' of vaccine in case of an outbreak of smallpox. Hitherto the vaccine has been prepared at a station in Wellington, but as it has been decided to hand this over to the Wellington Hospital Board’s bacteriological laboratory, the Health Department has decided to establish a new vaccine station at Seacliff on the mental hospital property. This vaccine station is to be placed under the direction of Professor Hercus, of the Otago Medical School, and the Government bacteriologist at Dunedin, who will in future control the preparation of vaccine.
