CA 11 JOURNAL MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 2003 D9 Smallpox Shots May Have Lengthy Im Immunity BY RANDOLPH E. SCHMID The Associated Press of Americans already vaccinated against smallpox may retain at least some protection many years later, a study indicates. Medical experts have assumed that protection from the vaccine lasted three years to five years and declined after that. "A report scheduled for the September edition of the journal Nature Medicine indicates that lab tests can detect immune response in 90 percent of vaccinated people for many years, some for as long as 75 years. The study, led by Mark of Oregon Health and Science' University, was being published in today's online issue of the journal.

While Slifka and colleagues were able to measure immune response in people's blood, the question remains whether that response is strong enough to protect from disease. How much response is necessary for protection is unclear. "The stuff that they did realdoes look comforting," said Dr. John Treanor of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry in Rochester, N.Y. "But it wouldn't be safe to assume that you were going to be immune to the disease based on the fact that you can still detect some immunity," said Treanor, who was not involved in the study.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, agreed that the relationship between immune response and protection from disease 1 is not well understood. Fauci noted that the finding does not address the fact that half of Americans have never been vaccinated for smallpox, nor does it change the government's need to pursue vaccine for emergency responders. Transfer of West Bank Towns on Hold BY LARA SUKHTIAN The Associated Press RAMALLAH, West Bank The planned Israeli handover of two West Bank towns to Palestinian control suffered a setback Sunday when Israeli and Palestinian security officials failed to finalize terms for the transfer. A spokesman for Palestinian security.

chief Mohammed Dahlan said the two sides adjourned after four hours of talks and will resume negotiations Tuesday. The talks on the handover of Jericho and Qalqiliya stalled over Israel's insistence that even after Palestinian security forces take over responsibility for the towns, the Israeli army will retain roadblocks controlling movement, spokesman Elias Zananiri said. "The' meeting between the two sides ended without agreeing on a timetable for the withdrawal from Palestinian cities because the Israeli side insisted on keeping the military roadblocks," he said. "The Israeli side has raised some security issues to justify keeping these roadblocks which we believe will make the withdrawal cosmetic." An Israeli army spokeswoman confirmed that the Sunday night meeting failed to produce an agreement, but did not elaborate except to describe the meeting as "businesslike" and say the two sides would reconvene soon. Earlier Sunday, there were signs of progress after Israel dropped a demand requiring militants to be rounded up by Palestinian forces.

Israeli and Palestinian security officials planned to meet in the two towns this morning to prepare for the handover, which had been expected to take place by Tuesday. The Jericho and Qalqiliya handover was to be followed next week by a with- OBITUARIES Homes Burn, Hundreds Flee Montana Fire People who will be activated to respond in the event of an outbreak need optimal protection and to get that they need a recent vaccination, he said. There has not been a natural case of smallpox in the world since 1977. Still, stocks remain in labs, and there is concern that the virus could fall into the hands of terrorists. Preparing for that possibility, the government has required vaccination for about 500,000 members of the armed BY DAN D'AMBROSIO The Associated Press MISSOULA, Mont.

The burned remnants of two houses were found Sunday in the ashes of a wildfire that spread three miles in two hours and forced about 250 families to evacuate. More than 100 families were allowed to return Sunday, but the houses of those who were kept out of the area south of Missoula were still threatened. Winds up to 55 mph pushed the fire to 5,200 acres in less than two hours Saturday night. "All you can do at that point is just get out of the way," said Mike Litterst, a fire information officer. Fifty-seven new fires totaling more than 47,600 acres started between midnight Friday and midnight Saturday, said Julena Campbell, fire information officer for the Northern Rockies region.

There were already a few dozen large fires burning about 250,000 acres in Montana. "It's going to take a significant amount of moisture, which around here means snowfall," she said. "Nature started most of these, and that's what's going to put them out." A fire about 20 miles southeast of Missoula more than doubled in size in the Saturday night winds, growing more than 7,000 acres to a total of 15,000 acres.

The fire is also jeopardizing two major electric lines, one that powers eastern Washington state, and another that provides power to parts of Missoula and elsewhere. Utility crews Sunday continued to rebuild two other lines burned in a fire west of Billings. Company officials had warned customers Friday to prepare 1 for blackouts, but none had occurred by late Sunday afternoon. Windy weather revived a fire east of Big Timber in southcentral Montana that firefighters had declared contained just hours earlier.

More than 20 homes were evacuated, McKelvey said. Elsewhere in the state Sunday, all 50 miles of Glacier National Park's Going-to-theSun Road reopened, and residents on the north end of Lake McDonald were permitted to return home. Outside Missoula, travelers struggled Sunday to come up with a route around the fires. "There's fire to the south, north and west, so I'm not real sure what we're going to do," said Bernie Carroll, who was trying to drive home to Oregon.
