Pier 32, Worth River New York "THE SEARCHLIGHT ROUTE" B Q What We Know And Do Not Know About Infantile Paralysis By SAMUEL G. DIXON, M. D. Commissioner of Health Q —□ W ITH the history of the world's workers on Poliomyelitis and the results of our own work before us we have to acknowl edge that THE GERM OF THIS DISEASE HAS NOT BEEN FOUND, and further, that we do not know how the disease is com municated from one person to another. There is no medicine or specific that will prevent it or cure it. DON'T LOSE YOUR HEAD! Avoid patent medicines—they do harm. Call in your family physician if you get sick; he will not tell you he has a remedy that is a sure cure, and any one who does, lies. Long attentive treatment under a good doctor of medicine and helped if possible by a good nurse, will in many cases bring the child back to health. There is not as much paralysis as commonly believed. The re ports of the outbreak in New York seem to establish this. On the 13th of July New York reported 1,600 cases of Poliomyelitis, but only 403 of paralysis. Until we know more about that which pro duces the disease and how it is communicated from one person to another we, with our present knowledge, STRENUOUSLY RECOM MEND the following precautions: All excepting the doctor and the one nursing the person sick of the disease must keep out of the room set aside for the patient. If possible keep children out of the neighborhood in which the disease prevails. Keep all insects out of houses, particularly flies. GUARD FOOD STUFFS FROM FLIES. Flies may Garry the disease. Feed children on cooked food as much as possible. See that the outside of bread or biscuits is kept clean and away from flies. Wagons, trucks, etc., carrying bread should not be kept in horse stables. Screen your houses and baby coaches or cribs or beds when the house is not fully screened. The Department has literature on this subject which you can get upon written request. THIS DEPARTMENT IS IN CONSTANT WARFARE TO PROTECT OUR PEOPLE FROM DISEASE. TO ACCOMPLISH THE BEST RESULTS WE MUST NOT ONLY HAVE THE CON FIDENCE OF OUR PEOPLE BUT INDIVIDUAL AND PUBLIC CO-OPERATION. July 29, 1916. q The Patriot Advertising Will Get YOU Anything You Want.
