During . 1951' Huron County shared in the increased" incidence of poliomyelitis which was felt across the continent, Dr.. R. M. Aldis of the Huron County Health Unit reported to the County Jouncil on Thursday of . last week: The peak 'of the infection occurred dur- ing September. 'The ages affected varied from 20 months to -'0 years, With the age group under ifr years hardest hit. Of 13 cases; all but one had paralytic symptoms in the acute stage of the disease. Four persons developed involvement of higher nerve centres in the brain and required treatment in the iron lung. Two of these ,died. Fairly complete recovery has been shown .by most of the other cases.' Whooping , cough accounted fpr one death; whichre , occurred in a fi months' old infant. There was a decrease...,.119H„e3mtt'd.._.in. the _number of cases of this disease over that reported in 1950, Dr. Aldis reported One death from chickenpox •teas reported and this' was tit an adult. Quarantine ,Regulations Our attitude is changing towards the common communicable diseaseic. More 'lenient now than 10 years ago, quarantine regulations-- are undergoing •still further *heplitica- tion. Adequate control of infectious disease is possible only where -im- munization, or effective sanitary measures cn be applied. Diphtheria, for example, Is kept in check by the continued use of toxoid typhoid fever, however, Is mainly limited by keeping safe our water, milk and food supplies. Knowledge of poliomyelitis is gradually increasing. Research workers have found thnt the virus is passed in -human sewage during epidemics. One possible explanation° for the .+,c•c-urrence of "epidemic's during th „yammer months is that infected' sewage can be a danger to water supplies_ and bathing areas and offers a source of infection for! flies. Since the virus rs also found in discharges from the ' noife and throat, droplet infection—coughing, sneezing, etc.—is thought 'by some; to ,be more the common tuetlbod of spread. In most people the infection causes only a mild illness" and it; seldom attains a serious stage. TheI illness' might be scarcely noticed or passed off as 'a flu' or summer com- plaint. It is thus possible for the virus to be spread widely in a very short tune by persons suffering from or just recovered from the mild form of the disease. These persons are often referred to as "healthy carriers." Develop Vaccine Recent research has •given more encouragement to the development , of a vaccine. All -communities can still work for better sanitation -- a sound policy under any dreamt= stance. ; Individuals can help by treating minor illnesses with extra caution- during polio'. season and i --nd- "' ^rotd�fn ..°•ftrt e a to parlIcllTa"r a � gu chilling which seem 'to be factors 'n the :developmuent of paralytic complications. - A beginning was made during the last yettr on a policy of more service to the child who has just entered or Is about to begin school. It is in this group that great .health dividends can be derived by early discovery of physical -defects. It might be well to stress at this time that the, commonest defect found, even at such an early age is tooth decay, Admittedly there Is a shortage of dentists. Unfortunate- ly' a great many pll eats feel treat- ment of the primary teeth is futile, and by delaying unwittingly pave the way for -continued disease of teeth' and gums. Other factors also enter such as careless use of sugars ie between meals, inadequate in- take' of minerals and vitamins, and a deficient_ diet -In the prenntel period. Too often, however, it is a matter of waiting too long to call the dentist. In those'_areas where a school dental service is available, the government grant can also apply to preschool children, the report concluded. EXPECTS RADAR SCHOOL TO SUPPORT 3000 SOON In future years the R.C.A.F. sta- tion at 'Clinton, will• support about 3,000 people, ,,Group Captain E. A. t). Hutton, C.O. of the Radar and Com- tnunicatiin School tale" the annual meeting of the Clinton and District 'Chiimber of Commerce last Thurs- day night. ,Summarizing the vital statistics that affect the general 'public, Group Captain Hutton declared that the present number of. persons lIvv ing and (or) employed on the sta- tion is more than 2,500. This total strength- is'made up Of the following, in round numbers: 1,650 service personnel, 200 civilians in R.C.A.F. employ, 150 civilian employees or contractors engaged f in construction projects on the .-and-,650.41e ,station, ndmnta,,,a vice personnel (that is, wives and families). die predicted that by the end of 1952, the number of service personnel is likely to rise to -about 2,000, and that there will be a proportionate • rise to civilian em- ployees of the R.C.A.F,, with this level likes' being maintained. Contratters' employees are likely to increase to over 200` by the end not this year, but will show .ft grad- ual decrease over 1953 and 1054 as construction projects are gradually completed. cgIrt future . years," lie said, "a reasonable estimate would be an average of over 3,000 persons, men, women and children, will be supported directly by the station."' rur trading is not a thing of the past in Canada by any means.
