Fight ’56 Polio Epidemic Now
Son Born To Mr. and
Mrs. Ls G. McDonald
Suini|time!>, however, the polio
vhwi doe* serious damrge. It at-
tacks the central nervous system,
destroying nerve veils and causing
paralysis.
If almost all of us are Infected
by the virus, there must be an
important reason why some peo-
ple succumb and some do not.
There is.
The critical battle in the fight
against polio takes place a» it
always has. in the bodies- of hu-
man beings. It is a battle between
the polio virus and tiny particles,
called antibodies, which can des-
troy the virus in the blood stream.
When an individual Is Infected
by the polio virus, the virus enters
his system and begins to multi-
ply. At fbe same time, the human
system begins to produce defen-
sive antibodies.
A race ensues. If the human an-
tibody factory works speedily
enough, the antibodies destroy th«*
within the human body. Then, In
1951 and 1952, research supported
by the March of Dimes revealed
that antibodies from other people's
blood • contained in gamma glo-
bulin • could be "loaned to an in-
dividual by injection and would
give some protection against para
lytic polio.
But the loaned antibodies would
last only a few weeks. And to be
effective, they had to be injected
before or at most within a few
days after a person was exposed
to polio, and it is not generally
possible to tell when this is.
Obviously, gamma globulin,
while of value in epidemic situa-
tions, was no final answer to the
control of polio. Among other
things, there could never be
enough to go around 'since it come
from human blood) and it is ex-
tremely expensive.
