here are many parents begging this for their kids nowadays by not getting them immunized. I assume they think its less of a hassle when your child can't go anywhere and just lies there.
Lol what?
I dont know anyone my age who got the polio shot.
You know what else can get you in one of these? Botulism, so prepare your food properly.

In April 1994, the largest outbreak of botulism in the United States since 1978 occurred in El Paso, Texas. Thirty persons were affected; 4 required mechanical ventilation. All ate food from a Greek restaurant.

Polio vaccine is an oral vaccine given to toddlers. Most people would not remember this. It would be in your vaccination record.

I had a friend, Dianne Odell, who at the time of her death was the longest living iron lung survivor. Look her up. She was amazing.

Odell died on May 28, 2008, at age 61. A power failure and the failure of an emergency generator cut off her breathing device's functions. Family members attempted to use the emergency hand pump attached to the iron lung to keep her breathing, but their efforts were unsuccessful.
Wow - that's really unfortunate.

That makes sense then, that hasnt been used for a while but was probably used on us.
They give you a shot now, i never received a polio shot.

The oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) is a weakened live vaccine that is still used in many parts of the world, but hasn't been used in the United States since 2000.
Oh and wash your hands, remember most dudes dont wash their hands after using the restroom.
quote:
Vaccinated people are not in harm’s way if they catch poliovirus, which spreads from the human intestinal tract via the fecal-oral route: a person gets stool germs on their hands, touches something or shakes hands with another person, and that person puts their contaminated hands in their nose or mouth. This is why younger kids – those still in diapers – are especially susceptible to infection.
the polio case in nY is from the oral vaccine. Go figure.
quote:
“So while we were preventing polio with this vaccine, we were also rarely creating vaccine-associated polio myelitis,” said Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist at Vanderbilt University in Nashville.
This is what happened to the young adult in New York. Genetic sequencing showed that the virus that paralyzed him originated from an oral vaccine, which is still used in other countries.
So this is the rare case the vaccinated caused the problem.
quote:
“The big drawback to the oral polio vaccine is you shed it,” said Dr. James Campbell, a pediatrician and vaccine researcher at the University of Maryland School of Medicine’s Center for Vaccine Development and Global Health
Very rarely, about once in every 3 million times it is given, the weakened virus in the oral vaccine can escape the gut and cause paralysis.
and of course the injection is not perfect either.
quote:
There is a drawback to using the injected vaccine, however. While it prevents paralysis, it doesn’t necessarily prevent infection.
Because of this, young adults and children vaccinated since the switch can still be infected with poliovirus in their intestines and shed the virus in their stool.
“They’re protected against a paralytic disease, but they can still harbor the virus and spread it to others. And that’s the circumstance we have now in New York,” Schaffner says.
So yeah your unvaccinated kid can catch it from a vaccinated kid shedding the virus.

The polio vaccine almost put the March of Dimes out of business. They came up with a new cause, baby health.

yea...I'm pretty sure that's 69 years longer than I would have had the will to make it.

It's a genocide for them out there, I'm to understand. And absolutely none of it is their fault of course.
Just like those poor, innocent, terror collaborators in Gaza ... I mean, what's an oppressed group to do?
The transies will soon be mocked like the Covidians and climate liars.

Research what damage the original polio vaccine did and get back to us.
