o THURSDAY, JUNE , lit Series of Live Polio Virus Doses Said Preferred , Washington - (Science Serv ice) - A series of oral doses of live polio virus vaccines ap pears to be more effective than one dose vaccines In building immunity against polio, a study in Costa Rlci" indicates. Licensing of one-dose live virus vaccines for protection against all three paralytic polio types is now being sought. But Dr. Dorothy M. Horstmann of the Yale School of Medicine told the Second International Conference on Live Pollovlrus Vaccines: 1. In vaccines that combine three live virus strains, one often dominates. The vacd. nated person is thus not al ways protected against all three types of paralytic polio. (Type III strain domi nates in the Cox vaccine, Type II in the Sabin.) Most Effective Way 2. Thus, attention should be given to adjusting the amount of each type in a com bination vaccine to allow for the types' varying infectious ness. 3. Until the proper .combi nation has been worked out, the three types administered separately (perhaps with a follow-up of combination vac cine) would seem to be the most effective way to get full Immunity. With three associates, Dr. Borstmann studied vaccinated children In a village near San Jose, Costa Rica. The international meeting here heard two reports on tests of live virus vaccines in Minnesota. In one, the safety of the Cox live polio virus vaccine was asserted on the basis of tests of 169 volunteers at St. Cloud Reformatory. Minnesota Families Tested The second study, also of the Cox vaccine, was made with families of the Univer sity of Minnesota. The study showed that a live-vaccinated member of a family "infects" other members of his family with immunity to polio. The Immunity spreads like a di sease. The study showed the im munity did not spread much outside the family group be cause of less frequent con tact. Altogether, more than half a million American have vol untarily taken live polio virus vaccines to demonstrate their effects on families and com munities. The USSR, however, has al ready licensed the live virus vaccine. About 50 million Russians have already taken them. This year; 30 million or 40 million more will be vaccinated.
