Permanent Polio Immunity
In Sight, Dr.. SoIk Believes

These trials, scheduled to begin
within a few weeks, must be
made to see if the vaccine
actually protects against cpl
denies of polio, he said. The
key question is whether anti
bodies in the blood are the real
defense, as all evidence so far
indicates.
DR.. Salk declared the vaccine
is safe, potent, and can be
plentiful.
1t has been given to nearly
5000 children in the Pittsburgh
area-including DR.. Salk's own
youngsters-and not a single one
has shown any fever or reactions
in the arm from the NEGOTIATIONS,
he said
Feels Sure Of Safety.
Il would not go ahead with
the trials if had any doubts
about the safety of the vaccine"
he declared.
The vaccine is made of dead
polio virus. killed by formalde-
hyde, and triple-tested for safety.
