Polio Immunization Falls Below Safe Level Across Nation
Public health officials warn polio protection is at a lagging level risking epidemics. Dr John J Witte of the CDC notes only 63 percent of U S children age 1 to 4 are adequately immunized, down from 74 percent in 1965. Heul Keown cites public apathy as a key factor and a lack of visible crippling cases diminishing perceived urgency.
