Sabin Reported
Recovering from
Nerve Disorder
WASHINGTON — Dr.
Albert B. Sabin, who de-
veloped an oral vaccine
against polio, has recovered
from a mysterious nerve
disorder which left him
paralyzed for several
months.
Physicians at the Na-
tional Institute of Health,
where Dr. Sabin underwent
treatment, believe the 77-
year-old researcher may
have contracted the illness
while working on an aerosol
measles vaccine in Mexico
during 1982. Dr. Sabin, who
is now walking with the aid
of a cane, plans to continue
his efforts to find a measles
vaccine.
All men desire to be im-
mortal.
