It is well to keep in mind, however, that even during -an epidemic the number of persons who get the disease is very small -in comparison with the total population. For example, approximately -45,000 cases were reported for the entire United States and Canada in -1949――and this was a bad year. - -[Illustration] - -Furthermore, about 50% of those who get polio seriously enough to -become paralyzed recover completely. Another large group has very -slight after-effects. Comparatively few are seriously affected by the -disease, and many of these can be considerably improved by means of -surgery and prolonged special treatment. Very few cases end fatally. - -This does not mean, however, that polio can safely be ignored. The -disease is a serious one――it is the most frequent cause of deformity in -children――and wise parents will take every possible precaution to help -their children avoid contracting it. - - - _What is_ POLIO? - -It is a contagious disease in which the gray matter of the spinal -cord is attacked, producing destruction of certain cells and causing -paralysis. The disease is caused by a virus――tiny “bugs” smaller than -bacteria. Apparently these “bugs” enter through the mouth on food or in -water that has been contaminated in some fashion, or through the nose -in breathing. It is not conclusively known how the disease is spread. -Many people harbor the virus without any reaction whatsoever. Many -others have mild symptoms which they disregard as a summer cold. Once -symptoms have developed, special laboratory studies made by experts are -usually carried out to establish the diagnosis accurately. - - - _What are the_ SYMPTOMS? - -There is no characteristic symptom or sign to be found in all cases. -This makes the diagnosis difficult. Quite frequently, the patient -cannot bend his head forward as far as usual. A doctor should -always be called if anyone in the family has a fever associated with a -bad headache, or with pain in the muscles in either the arms or legs or -in the neck and back. Even minor upsets in children should be looked -upon with suspicion. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, a slight cold coupled -with pain in the joints, are also possible danger signs. A child -catching polio may become drowsy or restless, feverish and irritable. -He may complain about and resist being moved. These symptoms are -particularly important during the summer and early fall months because -this is the period during which most outbreaks of polio occur. - - - _What is the_ TREATMENT? - -If, during the course of an epidemic, any suspicious illness should -develop in a member of your family, prompt medical attention and -observation are important. If any sign or symptom of polio is -present, the affected person should be hospitalized immediately. -Hospitals have many special forms of equipment which are necessary in -treatment. Trained nursing care is essential. Should paralysis appear, -special measures are necessary to prevent or lessen deformity and to -begin the rebuilding of the affected parts of the body. No clearly -reliable specific drug is available as yet which will cure polio, but -gamma globulin appears to give some degree of protection for several -weeks against the paralysis stage of the disease. There are now strong -hopes that a vaccine is now available that will give immunity against -polio for a whole season. - -_At the present time_ treatment of the disease takes many forms. -While a patient is recovering from a polio attack, a full nourishing -diet, application of various forms of heat and massage, special baths -and exercises, are the measures which are most helpful in restoring -usefulness to affected arms or legs. Specially built shoes or braces -are required in only a few cases, and surgical operations have been -devised to return motion and function to the arms or legs of some -patients. - -_Treatment_ must be continued over long periods of time in some cases, -but the results are often very rewarding. The expense of such long -treatment is great. Fortunately, an awakened public, through its -contributions to the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis and -other Agencies, has helped thousands to bear this expense. Support of -these organizations in their sincere and unselfish aims is a splendid -public service in the battle against polio. - -[Illustration] - - - _How to GUARD against this DISEASE...._ - -Although there is no known means of vaccination or inoculation against -polio, many things can be done to lessen the possibility of getting the -disease. - -_First_ of all, if an epidemic occurs, you should follow the -instructions of the local public health officer. He will also decide in -what cases gamma globulin is needed. - -_Secondly_, it is wise to avoid crowded places, especially indoors -where there is opportunity for close contact and possible infection. - -_In addition_, food and water should be obtained only from absolutely -reliable sources. - -_Every_ effort should be made to insure that flies, mice, rats, and -other vermin are kept out of the home, as they are possible carriers of -infection. - -_You_ and your children should get plenty of rest and wholesome food, -avoid over-exertion and excessive fatigue. - -_Do not_ travel into areas where there is much polio or go swimming -when many cases have occurred in your locality. - -_Further_, many physicians may advise postponing the removal of -tonsils, the extraction of teeth, or other operations in or about the -nose, throat, or mouth when the disease is prevalent in the community. - -[Illustration] - -The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis and other Agencies will -help polio patients as much as possible. But the best kind of help -is that which you, yourself, can give by taking every precaution to -keep the disease from striking anyone in your family. Proper rest, a -balanced diet, and moderate exercise in the fresh air and sunshine tone -up the body and help increase the system’s resistance to disease. By -following these and other common-sense rules of wholesome living, your -family will be taking a major step toward health and happiness. - - - - -This is one of a series of health booklets prepared by - - THE - PRUDENTIAL - INSURANCE - COMPANY - OF - AMERICA - - [Illustration] a mutual life insurance company - - - COMB 4×39――ED 3-54 Printed in U.

It is well to keep in mind, however, -that even during an epidemic the number -of persons who get the disease is very small in -comparison with the total population.

Comparatively few are seriously -affected by the disease, and many of these can -be considerably improved by means of surgery -and prolonged special treatment. Very few -cases end fatally.</p> - -<p>This does not mean, however, that polio can -safely be ignored.

The disease -is caused by a virus—tiny -“bugs” smaller than bacteria. -Apparently these “bugs” enter -through the mouth on food or -in water that has been contaminated -in some fashion, or -through the nose in breathing. -It is not conclusively known how the disease is -spread. Many people harbor the virus without -any reaction whatsoever. Many others have -mild symptoms which they disregard as a summer -cold. Once symptoms have developed, special -laboratory studies made by experts are -usually carried out to establish the diagnosis -accurately.</p> - - -<h2 class="nobreak"><i>What are the</i> SYMPTOMS?</h2> - -<p>There is no characteristic symptom -or sign to be found in all -cases. This makes the diagnosis -difficult. Quite frequently, the -patient cannot bend his head -forward as far as usual. A doctor -should always be called if -anyone in the family has a -fever associated with a bad -headache, or with pain in the -muscles in either the arms or -legs or in the neck and back. -Even minor upsets in children should be looked -upon with suspicion. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, -a slight cold coupled with pain in the<span class="pagenum" id="Page_4">[Pg 4]</span> -joints, are also possible danger signs. A child -catching polio may become drowsy or restless, -feverish and irritable. He may complain about -and resist being moved. These symptoms are -particularly important during the summer and -early fall months because this is the period during -which most outbreaks of polio occur.</p> - - -<h2 class="nobreak"><i>What is the</i> TREATMENT?</h2> - -<p>If, during the course of an epidemic, -any suspicious illness -should develop in a member of -your family, prompt medical -attention and observation are -important. If any sign or symptom -of polio is present, the affected -person should be hospitalized -immediately. Hospitals -have many special forms -of equipment which are necessary -in treatment. Trained nursing -care is essential. Should paralysis appear, -special measures are necessary to prevent or -lessen deformity and to begin the rebuilding of -the affected parts of the body. No clearly reliable -specific drug is available as yet which will -cure polio, but gamma globulin appears to give -some degree of protection for several weeks -against the paralysis stage of the disease. There -are now strong hopes that a vaccine is now -available that will give immunity against polio -for a whole season.</p> - - -<p class="p2"><span class="lrgfont"><i>At the present time</i></span> treatment of the disease -takes many forms. While a patient is recovering -from a polio attack, a full nourishing<span class="pagenum" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</span> -diet, application of various forms of heat and -massage, special baths and exercises, are the -measures which are most helpful in restoring -usefulness to affected arms or legs. Specially -built shoes or braces are required in only a few -cases, and surgical operations have been devised -to return motion and function to the arms -or legs of some patients.</p> - - -<p class="p2"><span class="lrgfont"><i>Treatment</i></span> must be continued over long periods -of time in some cases, but the results are -often very rewarding. The expense of such long -treatment is great. Fortunately, an awakened -public, through its contributions to the National -Foundation for Infantile Paralysis and other -Agencies, has helped thousands to bear this -expense. Support of these organizations in their -sincere and unselfish aims is a splendid public -service in the battle against polio.</p> - -<div class="figcenter" id="i_p02"> - <img src="images/i_p02.jpg" - alt="nurse and child" - title="nurse and child" /> -</div> - -<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_6">[Pg 6]</span></p> - - -<h2 class="nobreak"><i>How to GUARD against -this DISEASE....</i></h2> - -<p>Although there is no known means of vaccination -or inoculation against polio, many things -can be done to lessen the possibility of getting -the disease.</p> - - -<p><span class="lrgfont"><i>First</i></span> of all, if an epidemic occurs, you -should follow the instructions of the local public -health officer.
