Enteric fever in British Guiana, according to official reports, would not appear to be excessively common: the number of notifications for the whole Colony during the years 1930 and 1931 was 244 and 250 respectively on a population of 310,000.

The few observers who have studied this disease in the Colony have all insisted on its sporadic character. Rowland (1910) has clearly illustrated this peculiarity with a series of spot maps showing the distribution of enteric in Georgetown from 1909 to 1913.
