This paper, archived from the website of Queensland Health, discusses Poliomyelitis (commonly referred to as polio) and has typically been considered a chronic, yet stable disease. Many polio survivors are now experiencing symptoms of fatigue, weakness and pain, which are often debilitating and having a profound effect of their quality of life. These symptoms, that are affecting the individual years after their recovery from their initial episode of polio, are commonly referred to as the "Late Effects of Polio."
Childhood immunization is one of the major public health measures of the 20th century and is now receiving special attention from the Clinton administration. At the same time, some parents and health professionals are questioning the safety of vaccines because of the occurrence of rare adverse events after immunization. This volume provides the most thorough literature review available about links between common childhood vaccinesâ€"tetanus, diphtheria, measles, mumps, polio, Haemophilus influenzae b, and hepatitis Bâ€"and specific types of disorders or death. The authors discuss approaches to evidence and causality and examine the consequencesâ€"neurologic and immunologic disorders and deathâ€"linked with immunization. Discussion also includes background information on the development of the vaccines and details about the case reports, clinical trials, and other evidence associating each vaccine with specific disorders. This comprehensive volume will be an important resource to anyone concerned about the immunization controversy: public health officials, pediatricians, attorneys, researchers, and parents.
