Morris gives Brussels $300 grant Medical science has brought under control all kinds of diseases, like pneumonia and tuberculosis, but so far it's been unable to come up with a cure for the common cold. And this isn't because researchers find the common cold beneath their dignity as a subject fof' study: on the contrary, the more a solution eludes them the more challenging it becomes. Trouble is, the common cold isn't quite as simple as it sounds. It comes in more varieties than even the ketchup people could dream up -- about 60. Dr. M.W.Fujiwara, a Toronto pediatrician and the author of several articles on infectious diseases, says, "You could have a cold four times a year, and not have the same strain of virus twice in 15 years." At present, says Fujiwara, the only thing doctors can do is ensure that what they're treating really is a cold — and not bronchitis, pharyngitis or hay fever. Then treat the symptoms. In other words, a runny nose — or what physicians call rhinorrhea — is treated with decongestants; the accompanying cough, if there is one, with syrup; and the "dragged out" feeling with some form of ASA preparation. Dr. Fujiwara is somewhat skeptical about the use of lar ge doses of vitamin C in preventing colds.We all need a balanced vitamin intake, he says, but the research into vitamin C's benefits is still inconclusive. A second birth control and family planning clinic is opening in Huron County this week, following the success of the first clinic, held every Tuesday night in Exeter. The new clinic, sponsored by the Huron County Health Unit and paid for by a grant from the National Department of Health and Welfare, opens tonight at the Health Unit Office in Clinton. The Clinic, with a nurse and doctor on staff, will be held every Thursday night from 6:30 to 8:30. Huron County Health Unit's Director of Nursing Gurpal Thind says that women in hospital who have just had babies and young people have expressed a need for this service. The Exeter clinic, which opened in July in Huron Park is nearly used to capacity. The clinic will provide counselling and referrals to The best way to ward off colds, he says , is to be physically fit, eat sensibly, wear proper clothing and get adequate rest. In other words, the more vulnerable you are, the greater your chances of catching a cold — and the greater your likelihood of not being able to shake it off quickly. But there are no absolute guarantees: everybody gets a cold sooner or later, and children and allergy-prone people are especially susceptible. Recurrent colds in children, says Fujiwara, are usually secondary infections that respond to treatment with antibiotics. . The fact that colds are much commoner in winter, says Dr. Fujiwara, has to do with the extra load on the respiratory system: with each breath you take, the air has to be warmed, humidified — and germs and dust removed. With colder, drier air, and because people are more confined in smaller spaces in winter, the risk of spreading infection is that much gr eater. Moreover, the sun's ultra violet rays dorit have the same sterilizing effect on the air passing between people. Should you go to your doctor if you have a cold? Fujiwara says that, if everybody did so, physicians wouldn't have time to treat any other form of disease. So, until scientists come up with a cure for the common cold, about the only weapon we can use against it is common sense. specialists, discussion of different contraceptive methods, blood tests, pap smears, and a complete physical for every woman who attends, all free of charge. Contraceptive devices, including the pill, are provided free at the clinic. "We try to keep up with the newer methods of contra- ception", Mrs. Th find says, "including intro uterine devices called the copper salmon and the copper T". The cli nic is in no way trying to reduce the county's population, Mrs.Thind says."We see illegitimacy that shouldn't be there. We feel children should be wanted." All people over sixteen are welcome at the clinic, Mrs. Thind says.Couples are encouraged to attend together. • Appointments are preferred but not necessary.
