Abstract
This paper replies to the comments made by James C. Riley. It provides a defence of the assumptions adopted in 'Physician, heal thyself' (Social History of Medicine, 9(1996), 1-30) to estimate the average duration of work-preventing sickness experienced by members of the medical profession in England in the 1860s as well as offering some new estimates. It also provides further criticisms of Riley's contention that although the rate of mortality declined in England between the 1860s and 1890s that of morbidity increased, which is based on surveys of friendly society members. In doing so it reiterates the warning given by Jacques Bertillon in 1892 concerning the use of friendly society surveys for the measurement of variations and trends in morbidity patterns by age.
本文对James C. Riley的评论进行了回复。它为“医生，治愈你自己”(医学社会史，9(1996)，1-30)中采用的假设提供了辩护，以估计19世纪60年代英国医疗专业人员经历的工作预防疾病的平均持续时间，并提供了一些新的估计。它还对莱利的论点提出了进一步的批评，莱利认为，尽管英国的死亡率在19世纪60年代到90年代之间有所下降，但发病率却有所上升，这是基于对友好社会成员的调查。在这样做的过程中，它重申了雅克·贝蒂隆在1892年提出的关于使用友好社会调查来衡量年龄发病率模式的变化和趋势的警告。
