Polio was already naturally dying off, as a matter of fact after vaccinations started, it jumped back up, same as small pox.

Excuse my French...but horseshit.

Try living in the South in the summer of 1952.

I had two childhood friends affected. One in an Iron Lung and another with her leg braces and crutches. Many years later I saw her without her braces or crutches. Don't know if surgery or therapy did the deed.

eddie, bulwyf

I remember a kid in the neighborhood who got it. Went around on braces and crutches. After awhile she was able to get strong enough not to have either. But she still had a bad limp/gait.

I don’t remember what dose I got, Salk or Sabin.

But to think that this could have caused the cancers later, in all the Baby Boomers....

I’m angry beyond words...
