I know they stopped the scarring vaccine in the early 60s. My brother was born in 1959 and he has the scar. I was born in '61 and don't have it. I don't know what age you got the polio vaccine 50 or 55 years ago, but I'd guess it ended sometime between 1960 and 1962.

Just for your info.
quote:

Who Needs the Polio Vaccine
Most people should get the polio vaccine when they are children. Children should be vaccinated with four doses of IPV at the following ages:

A dose at 2 months
A dose at 4 months
A dose at 6-18 months
A booster dose at 4-6 years
IPV may be given at the same time as other vaccinations.


Because most adults were vaccinated as children, routine polio vaccination is not recommended for people ages 18 and older who live in the U.S.
