Sinai Hospital, co-chairman of
the community coordinating
committee, described Tay-
Sachs as, " . . . a disease
found almost exclusively
among the offspring of per-
sons of Eastern and Central
European Jewish heritage. It
is a disease from which there
can be no recovery.
"Nothing now known to
medical science can halt its
irrevocable course: Tay-Sachs
babies actually have the dis-
ease from the moment of con-
Ception. For the • first • six
months following birth they
seem to develop normally.
Then they are subject to lost
of motor controls and bodily
functions, suffer blindness
and coma . to die by their
fifth or sixth year," Dr. Mel-
len 'said.
