Dead For Present
For years the question of vo’.untaiy or compulsory quarantine has been debated, but most scientists believe that in the *a of polio either one is impractical. The experience at San Angel where an epidemic of polv' is now believed under control an 1 waning appeared to have con*mu d the theory that dosing of :, bools churches and movies . • * , • g on th spread of the disease. It is usually panic and hysteria among he population that leads to such closings. There are certain exception? •uch as the dosing of boarding schools in an epidemic area or schools where the pupils air ransported by prolonged bus ups thereby having close con-
tact.
The scientists heie believ* family responsibility’’ that i> avoidance of close contact with inexpos- I persons can be ai niportant la tor in helping icalth authorities in chocking ipicad of the disease. In the matter of flies as pot -ubl, carri rs of the polio virus he scientists here pointed oui hat on so mb occasions it ha i>,oi! shown that the fly may b guilty but the evidence is i nt conclusive. Spraying and dusting a town with a powerful insecticide, such as DDT. may have a calming cf feet on a panicky population, th* scientists point out, but it is doubted whether the actual ( spread if the disease is checked
