During the winter and spring months of 1928 the prevalence of infantile paralysis was greater in the United States than usual al though the number of cases was not large. Since about the first of June there has been an increase throughout the country. There has been an increasing number of cases in this state. Now is the time to be on the watch for early cases which usually forerun an epidemic. This is the most crucial period in the development of epidemic condi tions with this disease. The only safeguard is eternal vig ilance on the part of health officials, the medical profession, nurses and parents. Responsibility for the safety of their children rests prin cipally on the parents.- Do not try to run away from infantile paraly sis or poliomyelitis, as it is called, after the epidemic begins. Remain at home and guard the children against fatigue and indiscretions of diet Give them a little extra rest during the day and watch their temperatures. Tq keep the children in their own yards during an epi demic is the only safeguard against infantile paralysis as there is no prophylactic for the disease. Since we do not definitely know how this disease is transmitted the safe rule is to isolate all who are ill, especially children, until a diagno sis shows that they are suffering from a non-communicable disease. All cases of infantile paralysis should be isolated as completely as possible in a clean bare room that is well screened to keep out insects. Only the necessary attendant should bo allowed to come in contact with the case. All discharges should be disinfected. Eating utensils and soiled clothing should be boiled. During the acute stage the pa tient hould be kept quiet Joints will not stiffen and hopeless wast ing will not occur during this stage. Rest gives the damaged cord the best chance to repair, and it is sometimes necessary to apply a plaster cast or other immobilizing device. The hospitilization of in fantile paralysis cases insures com plete rest as well as the proper iso lation and quarantine that is neces sary. When the acute stage is over muscle training should begin. De formity can be prevented by keep ing the feet at right angles to the legs to avoid the most common de formity, a dropped foot Manipula tion during the acute stage may increase the amount of disability and in some cases has produced in curable deformities. On the other hand, muscle training and other constructive measures have accom plished results which are just short of miraculous. Expert care is need ed more in infantile paralysis than in any other disease. Some cases get well without any treatment However, it is the experience of crippied children hospitals that most of the almost hopelessly de formed cases have been treated without any regard for the true pathology of this disease. The only way of eradicating con tagious abortion in dairy herds is through separating those showing reaction to the test, followed by cleaning and disinfecting the barn, then replacing with abortion-free females and finally testing the herd frequently to catch any new infec tion.
