SAFEGUARD YOUR HEALTH ~ A PUBLIC SERVICE OF THE ILLINOIS STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY While Illinois is enjoying relative freedom from polio today, continued safety detor providing security for the vital Da Nang Air Base. Several members of the battalion distinguished themselves in combat by winning the Silver Star Medal, two Bronze Star Medals and one Navy Commendation Med a 1. Eighty-two Marines also earned the Purple Heart Medal for wounds received while fighting the Viet Cong. MecUcal history --f showing that polio comes and goes in waves -- gives warning that the disease must be recognized as an ever-present threat. Epidemic polio first aroused scientific attention when forty- four cases were reported in Stockholm, Sweden in the summer of 1887. Other outbreaks followed in northern Europe and when polio struck Sweden again in 1905, Dr. Oskar Medin and Dr. Ivar Wickman concluded that "infantile paralysis" was an acute infectious disease which was transmitted from person to person.. The Swedish physicians learned that poliQ starts mildly like a common cold --with fever, headaches and general aches and pains, followed by stiffness, inability to move and in some cases paralysis. Medical scientists suspected that it might be caused by one of the microbes discovered by liduis Pasteur, but the microbe htinters couldn't firtd the germ nor could they give polio to an animal in which they might concentrate their search. But then in 1908, Drt Karl Landsteiner -- an Austrian Nobel Prize winner -- succeeded in infecting monkeys with the germ taken from the spinal cords of human polio patients. This initial breakthrough enabled scientists to find that the disease was being caused by viruses, rather than bacteria. Meanwhile, polio was invading the United States. In the summer of 1894, it struck 100 children in the little lumbering village of Otter Creek, Vermont. However, the crippling disease did not make national headlines until it panicked New York City in 1916. Cases began building up slowly in June. As newspapers printed each day's scores, parents stampeded railroads find the disease in the ouflyinfe areas as well. « ^Frantic measures were ta- J ken. To stop the spread, car- r tificates of health were rfe- ' Quired of those fleeing the city.
