Good Deeds in Fairfax

Thousands of children between six
months and six years of age have received
gamma globulin shots this week in Fair
fax County. But this is just the skeleton
of the report.
The thing that fills 1t out and gives
1t life is the heart-warming story of the
men, women and teen-agers who have
made this possible.
When the incidence of polio began to
mount alarmingly, the County Medical
Society and the Health Department ap-
pealed to the National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis for enough gamma
globulin to give the Shots-supposed to
provide immunity for six weeks-to all
youngsters in the age group. Then the
real work began. All week long, includ-
ing Sunday, total of some 10 doctors
stood in the hot school buildings giving
the shots. Some postponed vacations,
some gave up a day of, others stole time
from private practice. Nurses, mothers,
fathers and teen-agers pitched in to help.
Everything was donated-the time, the
materials and the gamma globulin. And
the youngsters were immunized.
The routine starts all over again next
week when the second round of Salk
injections will be given to $4,000 children.
If there is anyone who feels need to
have his faith in human nature restored,
he ought to visit Fairfax during this
period
