An outbreak of typhoid fever occurred in the autumn of 1920 in Cork. As it was the biggest of its kind in the history of the city (and probably of this country also). The total number of reported cases was 243 but, as will be shown, it is highly probable that this figure represents only a portion of those which actually occurred. There were 12 cases among the military establishment,
Prior to September 1920, 6 cases of typhoid had been reported. In the second week of that month 3 cases occurred and these were the first definite harbingers of the epidemic. In the following week 43 cases were notified and the peak was reached in the third week with 107 cases. In the fourth and fifth weeks 35 and 20 cases respectively occurred and thereafter the incidence dwindled rapidly but the epidemic did not die out until the early weeks of December. This is typical of enteric fever. The total number of cases recorded in the city area during this period was 243 and the number of deaths 13.
