SCHOOLS CLAIM 85 AND 95 PER CENT DIPHTHERIA IMMUNITY Now that the schools of McHenry can claim between 85 and 95 per cent immunity against diphtheria it is time that we show equally as good a record in smallpox immunization. Smallpox prevalence went from 1236 cases in 1927 to 1663 cases last year, both figures reflecting nothing but disgraceful negligence. As usual the bulk of the incidents took place down state where the population is from 80 to 90 per cent unvaccinated except in three or four cities. In this connection it is interesting to observe that no case of smallpox was reported during 1928 in Philadelphia where vaccination of school children is compulsory. The present smallpox situation in Illinois will bear more than watching. Over 100 cases are reported weekly. This is more than a threat, it is a problem. For the first week in 1929 there were 57 cases reported. "During the second there were 100 and during the third 104. For the first three days of the fourth week 94 cases were reported giving 355 cases for the first 24 days of 1929. Just a year ago one case of smallpox in New Haven led to the vaccination of 100,000 persons in that city. The health officer there is quite sensitive to smallpox hazards and his community is well educated along that line. Children are reuqired to be vaccinated before entering school in New Haven as routine matter. Still 100,000 persons were vaccinated when one citizen got smallpox. That was the only case that had appeared in the city for several years. If 1,000 vaccinations were done fox each case in Illinois there would be over a million vaccinations per year in ordinary times and considerably more at intervals. , After two or three years at this rate the state would be well vaccinated and smallpox so rare that folks would fall back again upon their constitutional privilege of not choosing to bo vaccinated. Nothing would happen fof awhile and then with the rise of a new and unvaccinated generation the whole thing would have to be done all over again. The question simmers down to whether the folks prefer periodic spasms of vaccination under stress of fear and force or a regular system of vaccination that results in all children being protected at the time they enter school. The other day a school boy broke out with smallpox. Everybody el£e wanted to escape the disease. Nobody wanted to be vaccinated. Parents wanted their children to miss no school. What to do and how far to go short of forcibly vaccinating every individual in the emmunity was the question. Well, vaccination against smallpox as toxin-antitoxin immuniza tion against diphtheria IS a purely voluntary matter inlllinois When, an epidemic of smallpox threatens the health departtnent, authorities can require citizens to do one of two things, be vaccinated or be quarantined after each exposure for three weeks. Most people very sensibly accept vaccination. It protects at least five years--while quarantine costs more and protects nobody but the other fellow.
