Or dirty food. In extremely un.
sanitary conditions. such as exist
In some areas In Browning. flies

For every person who has
polio with nerve paralysis there
are 100 10 ! 200 other persons who
have the disease but never know
II. These apparently healthy per.
sons can b. extremely dangerous
sprcaders Of polio because they
will have the virus In their stools

weeks. BY their unclcanly prac.
tees they can give the polio to
others.
There Is no known cure for
polio once . person becomes In.
fected. Treatment Is directed to.
