...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.)
