Vaccine restart after week pause boosts school inoculations
After a safety review, the Public Health Service cleared 11 vaccine batches from Parke, Davis for use in more than a million children. States began resuming mass programs with some districts starting Monday as U S Surgeon General Scheele noted most of the 4.25 million cc had already been used and about a fifth of recipients had prior shots. The suspension still affects other firms while Cutter cases prompt further checks. No post inoculation polio cases tied to Parke Davis have been reported in this update. Four suspected Cutter cases are under study and Idaho reports three polio cases linked to close contact with vaccinated youths.
