Mates t Dr.

Landauer.
Failure to undersUi.i the limitations of irnmma globulin accounted for public confusion during the summer of 1913. when It
was made available as a public
health measure, says Dr. Landauer.
"As a result of the mode of distribution, the 1133 use of gamma
globulin for mass or group prophylaxis against poliomyelitis was
only in rare Instances correctly
timed for maximum effectiveness."
Dr. Landauer writes
"In many
rommunities it was not given until
nfter the peak of a poliomyelitis
epidemic had already passed Adverse reports on its use were theie-for- e

While the use of gamma globulin In polio s comparatively new,
the agent has a long history of
usefulness against measles in offering temporary immunity and In
reducing the severity of an attark
of the disease. The lilting of restrictions on the sale of gamma
globulin this year will make much
more available for measles.
Not to be confused with the
polio vaccine now undergoing trial
in this country, gamma globulin
may perhaps be described as a
grab bag of tentpnrury immunity.

Collection and distribution

gamma globulin is an organized
way for the immune to lend their
