240 WHO DIDN'T
, HAVE TO DIE
"Last year 73 Canadians died from
poliomyelitis, Medical scientists are
working vigourously and ceaselessly
to find out,more about this disease. So
far polio is somewhat of a mystery.
To repeat, 73 Canadians died last
year from a disease about which much
remains to be learned,
But last year 85 Canadians died
from diphtheria, a disease about which
a great deal is known, a disease which
can 6e prevented. Diphtheria toxiod is
almost 100% effective. It is safe and
easily administered. Nor is it a pro-
cedure limited to those in fortunate
circumstances. Toxiod immunization is
provided free of charge at public
health clinics or for a small sum from
the family physician. Yet 85 persons
died last year in Canada from diph-
theria.
Last year 155 Canadian children
lost their lives to whooping cough.
Whooping cough, too, is largely pre-
ventable. Whooping cough vaccination
given in infancy can greatly reduce
the number of cases and the severity
of this most deadly of all children's
diseases. Yet 155 lives were lost.
Medical science admittedly' lacks
many answers were diseases, like polio
are concerned. But medical science
has the answers for diphtehira and
whooping cough. Yet more lives were
lost from each of these diseases than
from polio. This shameful situation
