Today it supports general outpatient clinics for adults, 1 children’s outpatient
clinic with an infant welfare and mothers’ consultation office, 1
lung clinic, 1 first aid post, 1 general hospital with outpatient clinics and 1
hospital for chronic diseases, both with 250 beds each. The department for
hygiene control (Physikat), which has just established 8 sanitation posts in
the Jewish quarter, has the mission of checking and examining the sanitary
condition of the apartments, yards, public places, alleys in the Jewish residential
quarter, to issue instructions and orders, and even to impose penalties
in the case of non-compliance.
Two hospitals for infectious diseases are being organized and will open
shortly. Throughout the rayon [a Russian administrative district–ed.], 60
Jewish physicians and Jewish sanitary personnel have been delegated for
the fighting of epidemics, and further doctors will be following them successively.
In Kleparow and Zniesienie, 2 outpatient clinics for adults and in
addition further outpatient clinics for children and pulmonary cases are
being established in the Jewish quarter.
Finally, sanitation crews and ‘block doctors’ are being organized for
the control and supervision of the hygienic situation for every 250 apartments.
The General Jewish Hospital at Kuszewiczagasse 5, with its departments
for internal, surgical, gynecological, and pediatric diseases, for
urology, laryngology, dermatological diseases, neurology, and the outpatient
clinics affiliated with them, receives patients throughout the entire
day. […]
The children’s outpatient clinic at Schleichergasse 5 and Bernsteingasse
5, with its consultation and welfare services for mothers and health
clinic, receives sick children up to 14 years of age all through the day. Distribution
of milk supplies for infants is done only at Schleichergasse 5.”
