SYMBOL:

The attached is Dr. Conard's summary of the latest survey of the
healthstatus of the Marshall Islanders carried out in March 1960
by Dr. Robert A. Conard, Brookhaven National laboratory.
It is a pleasure to note that no evidence of biomedical radiation
effects are reported.
Dr. Conard seems to have solved very effectively the problens
created by the former annual invasion of the Islands by a toolarge survey party. The cooperation of the local medical contingent was effective and generally satisfactory.
