ADVICE ON
POLIOMYELITIS
GIVEN BY DR. COX
AUSTIN.—Dr. Geo. W. Cox,
State Health Officer, has issued
the following statement* anil suit
ifestioii* eonerninjr the control and
prevention of poliomyelitis which
is now occurring in certain se<
tions of the State.
At one time it whs generally be
lieved that this infection was
transmitted ixlimarily by discharg
es from the respiratory tract 1'
is now believed that poliomyelitis
may be another of the several
WTH trmntestinal infections. There
fore, control measures must in-
clude clean up campaigns and im-
provements in sanitation.
Stringent effort' should be nut'i*
to t-liminate house-flies, mosqifi
toe*, and rodents t<> destroy their
breeding places. Every effort
should be made to institute ap-
proved garbage collection sys-
tems, and secure safe water sup-
plies. Where adequate municipal
swage disposal systems are not
in operation, it is necessary to
install and maintain -unitary sep-
tic tanks and outdoor privies
All swimming pools should main
tain those standards approved by
the Texas State Department of j
Health. This includes maintenance \
of proper chlorine level. Where j
such standards ari not maintained, |
those pool* should be closed to
the public.
AH ra<* food* and vegetables
should be washed thoroughly be
fore use and protected from filth
and insects All food handling es-
tablishments should adhere strictly
to the State Law concerning the
sterilisation of dishes and uten-
sils. Those restaurants with in-
sufficient personnel to maintain
approved sanitation, should close
one or two hours each day so
that employees can assist in main-
taining cleanliness and high sani-
tation standards.
Approved milk supplies, rodent
control measurer, high sanitation
•tanards, and strict personal hy-
giene are all important Polio a>-^
H..i>ld («• rpiarantmi-I for ; 4 davs
and excreta from rases an<l con-
tacts should l e handled and dis-
infected with the umi' scrupulous
care as in typhoid fever or bar il-
ia ry dysentery
Over-exertion in children should
be avoided Children should not
vim! homes where there is illness.
It is advisablr to reduce to ;t
minimum all human contacts, es-
penally in children during an
outbreak of this disease. It i*
not advocate,| that schools, chur-
ches. and theaters be closed.
Early symptom* of infantile
paralysis hit headnche, fever, vo
miting, drowsiness, followed by
stiffness in the neck and back
When suspicious symptoms appear,
a physician should be railed inv
