In a simple study into the control of polio in the Third World a town was divided into 16 zones and pulses or oral polio vaccine given at one station in each zone, after extensive publicity about the campaign. Some 62% of children received three doses of the vaccine and the incidence of polio fell dramatically over the study period. It is suggested that this method is applicable to similar communities because it is cheap, effective, and able to be extended to unimmunised communities when resources allow.
在一项针对第三世界国家小儿麻痹症控制的简单研究中,一个城镇被划分为16个区域,在对该活动进行广泛宣传后,在每个区域的一个站点发放脉冲式或口服脊髓灰质炎疫苗。约62%的儿童接种了三剂疫苗,在研究期间小儿麻痹症的发病率大幅下降。有人认为这种方法适用于类似社区,因为它成本低、效果好,并且在资源允许时能够推广到未免疫的社区。
