Heppner's 4th Annual SIDEWALK BAZAAR Coming Next Week, July 7 & 8 SHOP NOW FOR THE 4th OF JULY Snake Bite Kits Insect Repellant Raid Yard Guard Murrays Rexall Drug 217 N. Main HEPPNER 1967 Sec. 2 Lockjaw Death Points Up Need For Tetanus Shots Oregon recorded Its ,irst death of the year from tetanus (lock- I Jaw) this month a 4-year-old i Washington County girl and ! the State Board of Health this ' week advised all parents to : make certain they and their ! children are protected against : the deadly germ. Investigation showed the girl suffered a splinter wound In her foot, showed symptoms of serious illness about a week la ter and died a few days later despite treatment. Records show seven Orcgon lans have died of tetanus since 1955. The last death was in 1965. Two victims of the germ last year were saved by injections of tetanus-lm m u n e gamma globulin, but were seriously ill and incapacitated for many months. With advent of summer and an increase in outdoor activities that invite cuts and other in juries, the Board saidit is ur gent to have tetanus immuniza tion and boosters at regular in tervals to assure 100 percent protection against the bacillus. Immunization comes in two forms. Child r e n from two months through six years old should receive a combination vaccine, DPT, for diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), and tetanus. The first immuni zation at three months old, Is followed by two more doses at intervals of four weeks. A boost er is needed one year after the initial series, after Injury, and again before the time of school entrance. For adults and children over seven, a combined dose of DT vaccine is used. This weaker, "adult-type" diphtheria and tet anus protects the older age groups. This initial two Injec tions should be followed by DT boosters every four years and a booster in case of Injury. Tetanus protection Is particu larly Important for gardeners and farmers who work with manure since tetanus is often present in these organic wastes. Actually, the Board points out. tetanus germs are present every where and are deadly once they enter the tissues, particularly through deep puncture wounds since they thrive on a lack of oxygen. Tetanus symptoms Include vi olent contractions of the mus cles, first noticeable in the neck and jaws. The spasms are often so severe that they actually des troy the muscles. Left uncheck ed, tetanus paralyzes the resp iratory system and causes death. About 50 percent of tetanus cases are fatal if the victims are not immunized. The Board advises those un protected against tetanus to consult their physician or local health department for further information and prote c 1 1 o n against the disease.
