Polio protection needed in state More than 90,000 South Car olina elementary school child ren in grades 1-4 need addition al protection against polio, ac cording to a State Board of Health official. “This means that almost half of the youngsters we’re send ing to school could conceivably come home one day with the disease whick used to scare people helf-to-death,” Dr. Don ald H. Robinson said. Dr. Robinson, chief of Preven tive Health Services, comment ed also that at least 140,000 children in grades 1-4 are incompletely protected against diphtheria and tetanus. Bureau of the census figures indicate that 12,500 children in the same category have never had a diphtheria and tetanus shot. “Immunization is the only protection our children have,” Dr. Robinson said. “We don’t want anyone to panic and we don’t suggest that people or ganize Polio Sundays or any other mass campaigns. “However we do recommend that parents check their child ren’s shot records and, if nec essary, bring them up-to-date. “We urge parents to ask their family doctor or county health department now for a tetanus shot,” he said. There has been only one case of polio in the Palmetto State since 1965, but officials expect scattered cases to occur at any time. South Carolina experienced a diptheria epidemic in 1966. That year Richland County’s twenty- 2 reported cases were the most for any county in the United States. Only one case of tetanus has been reported in the state this year.
