Hobby voices opposition to free polio vaccine plan
Health Secretary Oveta Culp Hobby told the Senate Labor Committee that a Democratic proposal for free polio vaccine for all children is unnecessary and undesirable. She urged backing Eisenhower’s plan to offer free vaccine only to children whose parents cannot pay, arguing the Democratic plan could cost up to 130 million dollars while the administration caps at about 28 to 35 million. The hearing also sparked a dispute as Chairman Hill and Republican senators debated whether the focus should be on vaccine safety assurances or the broader policy of mass inoculation.
