Double benefit obtained as 17,200 Sabin doses given
Over 17,200 doses of the Sabin polio vaccine were administered during the three Kiwanis sponsored during Oral Sundays held in Wayne.
Another side benefit was also realized from the project, according to Cal Comstock, Kiwanis Chairman of the project.
Donations of 25 cents per dose were asked and about $4,509.39 was donated. From this total, $2,749.72 in expenses were deducted.
The balance, $1,759.75 was turned over to the Wayne Hospital Auxiliary. Mrs. David Garwood, Auxiliary president, accepted the check for the group at Monday's Kiwanis Meeting.
Comstock said it was impossible to give bouquets to all the people who helped with the vaccine project, but he said, 'it is by cooperations such as this that these worthy projects are accomplished."
Anyone who missed any of the doses is reminded that the doses are available from their personal physicians. They are advised to take the vaccine in order to make the area population as near immune as possible.
The Hospital Auxiliary said the money would be used for hospital improvements.
