State Health Officer Dr. E. Kenneth Aycock said most of the race during April has been taking place in Richland and Anderson Counties. Forty cases of German measles and 30 of “regular” measles have been reported this month by physi cians in Richland County. And erson doctors have reported 57 cases of German measles and 14 of the other variety. “We are experiencing mild epidemics of both diseases, Dr. Aycock said. What can South Carolinians do to avert major epidemics? “They can take their children to their family doctor, or to the county health department for immunizations. Only two shots are needed, one for each disease.” Although the German meas les vaccine was not licensed until June 1969 fourteen S. C. counties have already complet ed mass campaigns and others are planning them. To date, 303 cases of Grman measles have been reported in the Palmetto State this year. There were 306 last year. The total of “regular” or the “red” measles cases reported so far this year has doubled that for last year. In 1969, 130 cases and two deaths were re corded. This year’s total is 272. -26 paving contract let Award April 22 of a $915,951 contract for resurfacing a 15.3 mile section of Interstate Route 26 in Newberry county was an nounced today by the State Highway Department.
