ABSTRACT
Three points may be emphasized 1. The antibody titers in North African children are lower than previously reported for European children during the period 1950-1960. 2. In both groups of children, there is a positive correlation between the antibody titers and the age of infection (paralysis or vaccination). 3. The non polio enterovirus present in the intestine of paralyzed children at the same time as the poliovirus seem to suppress the polio immunity. This last point should be confirmed on a larger scale.
