be worried about this. This Is one
of the reasons I decided to make
this report at this particular
time, the peak of the polio season.
As doctors, we knew that cer-

might possibly “provoke" para-
lytic poliomyelitis. If given during
the polio season. Some speculated
that an injection In the arm
might make that arm more sus-
ceptible to paralysis.
What Results?
What did a thorough study of
our mass inoculation program
show? Let me quote from a com-
plete report which we recently
wrote for The Journal of the
American Medical Association:
'Statistics gathered In this
study Indicate that there has
been no provoking effect (trig-
gering subsequent paralysis In
the Inoculated limb) by Salk vac-
cine even when given In the face
of a rising Incidence as experi-
enced In Chicago.”
That's what we told the doc ton
—and that’s what I’m telling you.
Yes, we knew that we were giv-
ing the vaccine amidst a rising
polio rate. But we decided, after
discussing the matter thoroughly
with medical societies and organ-
izations, that the risk to our peo-
ple would be far greater If we did
not offer them the protection of
the vaccine.
The results of our Inoculation
program, I believe, proved us
right.
QUESTION AND ANSWE1
8. M.: Can a person have ame-
bic infection of the liver?
Answer: Yes. This Is often a
very serious complication of ame-
who probably needed the vaccine blc dysentery,
most. The ameba often travels from

were afraid that the vaccine may form large abscesses which
would actually trigger an attack may even penetrate Into the chest
of polio. I cavity.
We knew that when we ordered
mass Inoculations last summer as
Chicago’s polio cases soared to-
ward a near record incidence rate.
In fact, the Illinois Department
of Public Health had Issued a di-
rective dated May 25, 1958, only
about a month before our up-
surge began, which stated: "Inoc
ulations with poliomyelitis vac
cine can be continued Into the
summer until there Is an In-
creased prevalance of the dis-
ease.
By the end of June we knew we
had an “Increased prevalance of
the disease.” We also knew that
about the only weapon we had to
combat It was the Salk vaccine.
So we made preparations for
mass Inoculations.
Urged to ConUnuo
On July 9 the state health de-
partment Issued a second direc-
tive: “Because of the high rate of
poliomyelitis this early in 1956,
all physicians are urged to con
tlnue vaccinating as many ehil
dren as possible.”
And vaccinate them we did.
Wholesale Cooperation
Everyone cooperated—doctors,
nurses, hospitals, police, news-
papers, radio, television, all the
local authorities. The only peo
pie we had difficulty with were
