demic. According to DR.. ]. D.
Adamson Of the University of
Manitoba, who headed the team
of investigators, the starting point
was Churchill, a small town near
Hudson Bay. There, during the
summer of 194S, several hundred
workmen were employed and
there was military installation
and some troops.
During the summer, a Royal
Canadian Air Force pilot was
flown from Churchill to Winnipeg
where the diagnosis of polio was
confirmed. Some weeks later
Tutu, an Eskimo hunter, finished
his trading in Churchill and left
for his home in Pistol Bay. On
his way Tutu stopped at Nunclla,
Eskimo Point and other camps to
spend the night. Although Tutu
was not known TO be infected,
five scattered cases of polio de-
veloped in these villages after his
visits.
Jimmy Gibbon, a native con-
stable of Eskimo Point and sur
rounding towns, was one victim.
Despite a paralyzed leg Jimmy
travelled TO the town of Padlei, 40
miles from Eskimo Point. Two
weeks later ten cases Of paralytic
polio and two deaths occurred in
Padlei.
Within four months despite at
tCmpts TO quarantine individual
camps, polio cases covered an
area of 10000 square miles. Re-
sistancc to the disease was seem
ingly non-existent. Old and young
alike, in almost equal numbers
became i'll. AS many as six in one
family were stricken.
Person-tO-person contact, ac-
cording to the Investigators, was
responsible for the increasing
number of new cases. Flies and
insects, sometimes suspected OF
being polio carriers, cannot exist
in these sub-Zero Arctic temper
atures. Polio, in each case studied
