PARENTS WARNED 70 LOOK FOR SYMPTOMS Infantile Paralysis Appears in Early Fall, Says Dr. Williams As most cases of infantile paralysis occur in the late summer and early fall, Dr. Maysil Williams, state health officer, warned parents to be on the lookout for symptoms of the disease during the next few weeks. Only three cases of the disease, which in 1983 took nine lives in this state, have been reported to the health oo it this year, Dr, Williams said. Symptoms of the disease are a mod- erate fever, usually accompanied by headache, gastro-intestinal trouble such as vomiting, conetipation, drowsiness alternating with irritability and stiffness of neck and spine, she said. This is followed by paralysis. Children are more frequently sus- ceptible than adults except in ex- tremely isolated districts not previous- ly reached by the infection. When the paralysis is prevalent, all children with fever should be isolated until a diagnosis has been made by a physi- cian, she warned. The source of infection is nose and throat discharges of infected persons and carriers or articles recently soil- ed with these disc! - Tt usually takes from 7 to 14 days to develop the disease after exposure to the infection.
