The One Minute
That May Save
Your Life
There will be a ma§s Polio
inoculation for all adults resid
ing in the Nome area in the very
near future. The date will be
announced in the Nugget and
over TV, so keep watching for
the exact date.
It is very important that all
adults receive their Polio (Salk)
shots! Those already inoculated
can still carry the germs and as
long as one adult neglects having
his or her shots, Nome is not out
of danger of this dread disease.
Don’t neglect this opportunity to
protect yourself against this
crippling disease.
Remember that every shot is
tested and checked by the Fed
eral government and that injec
tion is painless, harmless and ef
fective.
The polio vaccine has to be in
people’s arms before it does any
good. For the first time in
three years, since the vaccine
was licensed, it is available to
anyone who wants it. It takes
only one minute to get one shot.
It takes another minute to get a
second shot from two to six
weeks later. And only one min
ute more for a third shot seven
months after that. Three min
utes taken now can prevent a
lifetime of needless crippling.
There will be a maximum
charge of $1.00 per shot for
those who are able to pay. How
ever, those who are unable to
pay the dollar will not toe turned
away. You may receive your
polio shot free of charge, so you
j can afford this protection and
can not afford to pass up this
wonderful opportunity to s?ive
guard your health.
Watch for the date of the mass
inoculation! Let’s make Nome
100 per cent free of this dread
disease.
