There is as yet no preventive nreas- ures" in the form of vaccine, drug, serum or antibiotic of proved value in the control ofthe disease; Scientists are working strenuously on a vaceine as a preventive measure and their re- sults appear encouraging. One of the most - important meas- ures falls upon the general practition- er to find or locate the mild unsuspeci- ed case and isolate him. Diagnosis is difficult where muscle paralysis or weakness -is not present; --We- -must-he | Polio conscious during the epidemic season and- consider any febrile illness as a presumptive case. until prove) otherwise, Isolation of the patient is set at one week following the onget or as long as the fever-lasts. =A. week after the clinical illness, the chances of droplet transmission of virus through the patient's nasal and oral discharge ave slight. -- Quarantine of contacts is considered to be of questionable value. [It*has never proved to influence thé spread of the disease. However, in some lo- calities public opinion demands this measure be carried out. Parents should be instructed in the technique of disinfecting nasal and' oral discharges of patients at home, during the acute stage. During an epidemic all children with '|any sign of illness should he isolated in bed pending diagnosis. - Children should be exposed as little as possible to. fresh contacts during epidemics.

It is thought in many 'quarters that operations on the nose and throat, during the "incubation period predis- poses -to paralysis. Such operations should be postponed. . Closing of schools, or the delay of -|their_ opening, has not affected the coursé of outbreaks of -Poliomyelitis, such action has often resulted in panic on the part of the public. Often the activities of the children can be con- trolled better at school than at home. The only instance in which delayed school opening is justified "are (1) Certain Rural Schools, to which chil- dren are transported in buses from widely separated aréds, where there may be mixing of children' from epidemic areas. (II) Boarding gchools, located in an epidemic area. It is believed that closing places of amusement, Churches, theatres, swim- ming pools, ete., will only Tead to dis- ruption 'of community life without added protection against the disease, However, it is advisable to keep chil- | considerable dren away front places where crowds gather, when an epidemic threatens.
