Virus diseases like infantile par.

searchers have found
In their dormant state, these viruses
cause latent infections which do not
produce outward symptoms of di-
sease. Yet when conditions are favor
able they again come into the open.
Dr. Karl F. Meyer virus expert,
said there were three kinds Of latent
infections: Cd those which take root
III person causing an illness so mild
the victim is not aware he is infected:
(2) those in which disease organisms
remain in the patient but lie dor
mant, causing no symptoms whatever,
until the victims system becomes
susceptible and then contracts seri-
Gus illness, and 60 viruses which con-
tinue to live on the patient while he
is recovering from the disease.
One promising approach TO under
standing latent infections, DR.. Meyer
said, lies in learning more about
changes in patients system at the
time viruses change from mild para
sites into rampaging invaders. II
bodily changes provide the opening
for the onslaught, it may be medical
ly possible to prevent them and thus
defeat the virus.
Meanwhile Yale University scien-
lists believe they have opened a new
