places where the poor or sick are received,
and keepers or gaolers of Prisons, shall, at
the expense of their respective establishments
or Institutions, cause all inmates thereof to

entrance thereof, unless they produce
sufficient evidence of previous successful
vaccination within five years, if such vaccination shall not in the opinion of a duly-

which vaccination or revaccination under
this clause shall not be compulsory.

Hospitals in any case in which the medical
officer of the Institution shall consider it
