[edit] Clarification Needed

The article says that Sabin's vaccine "did not prevent the initial, intestinal, infection from occurring" but later says that it "prevented the actual contraction of the disease". Clarification of this is needed to explain further. CrashCart9 06:53, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

My mistake, it says the former about Salk's vaccine. Perhaps that should be made more clear, as it's easily missed. CrashCart9 06:55, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
