The Menace of Sick Persons - pt/1

In addition to all this the sick person is often a menace to everyone in his immediate nighbourhood, because most diseases are easily carried from one person to another.
Have we not all see instances where one member of a family became sick, And in a very short time other members of the family contracted the disease from him and were stricken down?

Very often the disease spreads abroad from that family to other families in the community, Resulting in large financial loss through the afflicted persons not being able to work or conduct their business, and in that great est of all losses, the loss of human life.

Furthermore, When health is impaired it cannot be restored in a day. It is a grievous error to look upon disease as a matter of small importance because it is thought a cure can be effected by taking a few doses of some medicine.
