Lansing. Mich, Apr 27-INS-
Health Commissioner II. Allen
Meyer today warned Michiganites
TO avoid all crowded. places, as
spinal meningitis near epidemic
proportions in the state.
Meyer said 1877 cases of the dis
ease have been reported so far this
year-compared with 20 for the
same period last year.
This is a disease of crowded
places and the best known way to
prevent it is to avoid as much as
possible crowded buses. theaters,
stores, and other public places" he
said
This number OF cases usually
drops off sharply in the summer"
Meyer pointed out, but We can eX-
pect a continued increase during
the next few weeks unless all pos
sible preventive measures are
taken"
The commissioner said FIRST
symptoms are vomiting. a stiif
neck. and a severe headache. Mod.
ern treatment with sulfa drugs and
serum is highly successful. and a
physician should be called at once.
Meyer advised.
