When the polio vaccine came about, school children like myself were the test subjects.

My brothers friend had polio. It was heartbreaking to watch her struggle in the braces on her legs.

We had worked sooooo hard selling salt at 10 cents a box for the March of Dimes and it finally paid off.

A few years back, one of my clients was using a walker. We were about the same age. He said "I missed the vaccine by 6 months".

We just keep trying but something new will come...and we know just a little more and solutions will come faster.

Yes, I had kids in my class who had had polio. The disease was far more widespread than Ebola. Parents were in a panic to keep their kids safe.

Now, just for fun, do a web search on Simian Virus 40 (SV-40).
