Doctor Talk
By JOHN b. KEMBEKT, M D.
It shouldn't be necessary at this
ime to suggest again that all who
lave not received their Polio ?ac
:ine should do so without further
lelay. All of the latest figures
ihow that at this time there are
wice as many paralytic poliomye
itis cases as reported at this time
n 1908. What is even more alarm
ng is that at the rate cases are
>ccurring at this time 1990 may
>e the worst polio year since the
rirst introduction of the Salk vac
:ine in 1995.
Several figures will show what
s happening in the United States
. . in the four year peiiod of
L990-1954 before the Salk vaccine
iras introduced there was an an
nual average of 39,000, polio cases.
By Uie end of 1907 the sversi I
annual rate vaa below 6,000 cuq I
In the year 1098 the cum jumpV |
above the 6,000 mark.
Considering only paralytic ci
es of polio the average ii mui I
greater for the first fix montl
of 1990, some 996 paralytic eas
having been reported through tl
week ended July 18, as against <
cases for the same period of tin{|
a year ago.
After close checking of all par{|
lytic cases thus far reported
1999 it is interesting to note thJ
nine out of every ten persons
afflicted have not received tlfl
full series of three Salk innoculg
tions. Figures now available eo|
clusively prove that the Salk va
cine is 79 to 90 per cent effect!
