Greenbelt Health Officer, issued
the following statement:
"The citizens of Greenbelt are
again warned of the necessity to
observe the suggestions made
some time ago by the Department
of Public Health in reference to
the control of poliomyelitis. AL
though as DR.. Riley, director of
the state department of heath,
has indicated, the peak of this
years epidemic is over, constant
vigilance is required to protect
our children and ourselves against
the occasional case which may still
appear. We have had at this
writing only three cases of the dis
ease.
Remember, all people who are
i'll should be isolated pending
diagnosis by physician.
