Lowell M. Wiese, MD, Director
Oakland County Health Department

Pontiac, Michigan 48053
Dear Doctor Wiese:
As you know, additional federal project funds have been made available to the state the past year to
initiate an all-out effort to control the ever-increasing incidence of gonorrhea, which has reached
epidemic proportions.
During the first ten months of this year, Oakland County reported 1,805 cases of gonorrhea. In October
alone, 237 county residents were reported and treated for the disease. At this rate, Oakland County
will report approximately 2,300 cases for the year, which would be a 35% increase over 1972.
During the past year, a state-assigned Public Health Field Representative (Mr. Jim Goodman) has been
assigned half-time to Oakland County. The female gonorrhea screening program in the county has been
developed to the point that we are now testing 2,600 females per month, Which consistently produces a
3+% positivity rate.
However, it is felt that the gonorrhea casefinding program needs to be strengthened. In addition to
the support already furnished by the county and state, additional investigative and clerical support
is needed •to further control efforts. in order to provide this additional assistance, the Venereal
Disease Control Program proposes to assign an additional full-time Public Health Field Representative
to the county and provide funds through contractual agreement for a full-time clerical position.
The Contractual agreement would initially be written to support salary and fringe benefits for the
clerical position through June 30, 1974. Since the program is assured of continued funding through
fiscal year 1975, the contract would be renewed in June 1974 and extended through June 1975. Continued
support beyond that point is anticipated but cannot be promised.
I trust that this proposal will meet with your approval and that it can be implemented With minimal
delay.
Sincerely,
Joseph L. Ploussard, Chief
Venereal Disease Control Program
