That sucks for him, but it’s anecdotal just like covid horror stories

Polio was not a “Major” issue in America during the vaccine effort

In the worst years you had 1,000 or so deaths and 5-10k cases of crippling

If you posted that as the covid numbers everyone e would say “that’s like .0000005%”
