Only around one-in-every-1,900 polio infections in unvaccinated persons will result in paralysis, according to the CDC. Officials assure the public that a vaccinated person has little to worry about with the current outbreak. More than 90 percent of Americans are vaccinated by their second birthday - and many had to receive the shot to attend public school. There is no polio vaccine booster and vaccination in infancy provides protection for a person's entire life.
While only one case has been confirmed so far - in an unvaccinated Rockland County man in his 20s - officials are worried that a massive outbreak is quietly going unnoticed. He was hospitalized, and a stool sample later confirmed that he had a case of vaccine-derived polio. This form of the virus comes as a result of the oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV). The vaccine delivers a person a live version of the virus. While the body will usually kill the virus - generating antibodies - on some rare occasions the recipient will be infected. The OPV is no longer used in the U.S., instead having been replaced with the inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) which is delivered via injection. Some developing nations still use the OPV because it is easier to access and activates antibodies faster than the IPV.Which has been a real problem:

The WHO linked the cases to a strain of the virus that had been noted circulating in Chad last year and warned that the risk of spread to other parts of the Horn of Africa was high....At issue is the fact that the oral polio vaccine – preferred in some places because of its ease of delivery and the lack of need for sterile syringes – uses an attenuated or weakened version of polio....But in areas where there is both poor sanitation and a lack of general immunisation the virus can survive and circulate for months, mutating over time until it poses the same risk of paralysis-causing disease as wild polio. Use of the oral polio vaccine was discontinued in the UK in 2004 and the US in 2000,...The WHO warned on Monday that the risk of further spread of vaccine-derived polio across central Africa and the Horn of Africa was high,
See my post above.
Since most polio is spread by fecal-to-oral transmission, that is alarming.
Community pools, community dining, lakes and beaches near sewage discharge, and poor hand washing habits, are polio's best friend.
History repeats. What is old is new again..
Please cite the source for that information.
But...I thought we were all vaccinated....
And they’re gonna push more polio vaccines - which happen to cause the body to shed polio virus into the digestive tract - ending up in the fecal matter - for up to 2 years.
IOW - more jabs = more polio virus in the wastewater = more ‘reason” for states of emergency = more opportunity to cheat in the mid-terms.
They will purposely spread the polio virus for political purposes.
But the gov is busy searching, Uninvited, for some documents in the home of the President ..
They can’t be bothered by polio coming across the open border.
Thanks for the information.
