Excerpt from The Control of Hookworm Disease by the Intensive Method

In Publication No. 1 of the International Health Board, entitled "The Eradication of Ankylostomiasis," were described the methods employed in the work directed against hookworm disease in British Guiana during 1914. The procedure there set forth has since come to be known as the "Intensive Method." It is being used in many countries in which measures against hookworm disease have been undertaken, and has been found to be applicable under a great variety of conditions.

The continued demand for Publication No. 1 has led to the preparation of this new edition, which aims to bring the description of this working plan up to date by showing the modifications and developments which it has undergone since the original pamphlet was issued. Unlike Publication No. 1, which dealt entirely with the work in the Peter's Hall district of British Guiana, the present publication is intended to cover not the specific details of a campaign in any one country, but the general procedure followed in conducting any demonstration against hookworm disease by the intensive method.
