J, Wilson, M.D., in the current is­ sue of Health magazine. The Health Leagtoe of Canada, which publishes, the magazine, is sponsoring Canada’s 12th National Immunization Week, Sept, 26 to Oct. 2. Dr, Wilson says: “Smallpox was in­ troduced recently into • Great Britain by an officer returning from abroad, ft. was brought into New York by a business man arriving by bus from Mexico. The absence of smallpox in Canada is no excuse for complacency, and a death from smallpox is inex­ cusable. .“Most of us have heard of immuni­ zation against smallpox, diphtheria, whooping-cough, tetanus (or lockjaw) and some other.diseases, but it might be well to re-examine what we know about it, since this protection is avail­ able to every child in Canada. And it is the responsibility of parents to ensure that every child is given the oppor­ tunity to receive these benefits early in life. “In order to simplify the immuni­ zation program in Canada, the triple antigen, Diphtheria, Toxoid, Pertussis (Whooping Cough) Vaccine'.and Te­ tanus Toxiod (combined), DPT, was introduced in 1948. This combination reduces the number of injections that would be required if each were admin­ istered separately, and has the added advantage that immunity to all three diseases is developed simultaneously. Because of the high mortality from whooping cough in the first 6 months of life, it is desirable to begin immuni­ zation with DPT early, preferably at 3( months of age. The primary immuni­ zation requires a minimum of 3 doses about one month apart. In order to ensure that the immunity is at a high level, a fourth dose is desirable within 12 months following the primary im- munizaton. ” “It is well known that immunity wanes with the passage of time. It is also known that a reinforcing, or re­ call or “booster” dose calls forth a response in a previously immunized person that is rapid and of a high or­ der. Therefore, in order to have the children continuously protected it is necessary to adminster these recall doses at regular intervals, e. g., at about 3 years of age and again prior to school entrance. It is customary to discontinue the use of whooping-cough vaccine in recall doses after the child has entered school since the hazard of death from whooping-cough at this age is minimal. However, recall doses with Diphtheria and Tetanus Toxoids (combined) should be administered at intervals of 3-4 years.” .
