The disease --which runs in epidemic cycles -- is expected to hit its three-year peak by late March or early April. e' will have a severe epimic with deaths and encephalitis, one of . the most feared complications of any infectious disease, unless there is widespread use of the Measles vaccine immeasles vaccine beginning immediately," Dr. Norman J. Rose, chief of the Bureau of Epidemiology of the state department of Public Health, told the council. Dr. Rose said that the state had purchased $180,000 worth of vaccine for free distribution to Illinois children through local health department clinics and private physicians upon request. To date, only $80,000 worth of vaccine or 80,000 doses have been requested. The remaining vaccine, said Dr. Rose, is dated for use by April 29 and will be worthless after, that.' Public apathy was blamed for the lagging immunization program. Dr. Rose said that many parents underestimate the dangers of a disease which he called "ten times worse than polio ever was." In addition to mental retardation, measles can lead to pneumonia, ear infections and deafness or severe bronchitis for one in six victims. ^ Yet it is estimated that 20 million children are susceptible and still unprotected in the United States. The vaccine was licensed for use in 1962. State statistics since show the extent of public apathy in Illinois: 1963--11,- 800 cases, 11 deaths; 1964--16,- 700 cases, 17 deaths, and 1965 (first 10 months)--5,028 cases, 6 deaths.
