When I was 8, we moved to a new town. I had a friend whose sister was in an iron lung. I never saw her other than in the machine. My friend shared a bedroom with her, so I saw her every time I went to their house. As I recall, she died a few months after I moved to the town. 

Shortly after that I remember lining up to get the polio vaccine on a sugar cube. It was remarkable homoow quickly the polio threat disappeared.

Anyone who doesn't believe in vaccines either has a screw loose or needs a serious rethink of their sources of information. Masking and vaccinations have kept me safe from covid. Hooray for the Mpox vaccinations. And from experience I know you don't want to get shingles, so if you're over 50 get the vaccination!

I fear we're headed to a bird flu pandemic and we'll be even less prepared than we were for covid. Maybe ivermectin will work. Or perhaps bleach injections.

People who made a life whilst living in an iron lung were perfect examples of never giving up. It would have taken many months or even years to develope ability to "Frog Breathe" & then to feel confident enough to actually spend time away from what would essentially be a prison. I doubt anyone from the polio pandemic would still be alive. I think the last one passed away sometime in 2025.

What a person 😇🕊️🕊️🕊️.

As opposed to pre-19th century, when epidemics of it were not common, per the "Epidemiology" section of the same web page.

People frequently overweight the value of vaccination and underweight the value of elimination of poisonous agricultural chemicals

Finally, something I can agree with. 

"The process of "elimination of poisonous agricultural chemicals" is something that has only received nibbles around the edges of the issue.  Substantial remediation is necessary.  I realize that some chemicals used in agriculture are, in fact, beneficial, and cause no harm. 

I suspect however, that those are few and far between.  We need comprehensive, long-term testing, and the balls to toss that which is found unhealthful.
