...David Bodian said that there should be a clear showing, as in the Salk 1954 field trial, based on different paralysis rates among vaccinated and unvaccinated. This was exasperating to both the University of Cincinnati's Dr. Albert B. Sabin and Lederle Laboratories' Dr. Herald R. Cox, developers of two of three U.S. live vaccines. It is an impossible requirement, snapped Dr. Sabin, because by its very nature the oral, weakened virus is designed to multiply in the human digestive tract. It is bound to spread to unvaccinated contacts (especially close kin) of vaccinated subjects, and make some...
...Monkey. Both Sabin and Cox asserted that there is enough evidence from millions of oral vaccinations in a score of foreign countries to show that their vaccines are safe and sure.* But each insisted that his own was better than either of its two rivals. (Dr. Sabin has attacked the third vaccine, developed by the Wistar Institute's Dr. Hilary Koprowski, charging that it contains viruses that cause disease in monkeys and might be dangerous for man.) Dr. Sabin gives his vaccine in three separate doses a month apart-one for each main type of polio virus. Dr. Cox...
...Cox disclosed that Lederle has already applied to the P.H.S.'s Division of Biologies Standards for a license to make generally available his one-swallow vaccine, now under extensive trial in Miami (TIME, Feb. 29) and Minnesota. Even this brought a demurral. Said Biologies Standards' Dr. Roderick Murray: "No company has yet filed a complete application with all the required data." What he meant was that the Government, once burned when hasty licensing of Salk vaccine producers was followed by the disastrous Cutter incident (TIME, May 9 1955 et seq.}, is now twice shy about licensing...
...that they had the only means of wiping out both polio and the viruses that cause it. Dr. Salk was sure that killed vaccines have a great future, against many viral diseases besides polio, and can be raised to one-shot effectiveness. After listening to all the arguments, Dr. Cox grumbled with some justification: "The only things you can be sure of are death, taxes and criticism." Said Dr. Bodian: "Maybe we have too many vaccines against polio...
...Bryan Democrats, and 2) won him the votes of many city dwellers who had voted Republican in earlier years, or who had never before voted in a presidential election. The two-way shift showed up neatly in the Pennsylvania results: Smith lost the three traditionally Democratic rural counties that Cox and Davis had carried, but he won three traditionally Republican industrial counties...
