When I contracted Polio a couple years ago, I was very glad that I was vaccinated against Polio or it could have been a lot worse.

If only I knew to wear masks and force everyone around me to wear them, then maybe I wouldn’t have gotten Polio at all.

Polio is usually spread through fecal matter so masks wouldn’t help at all. Perhaps diapers might work???

BTW, It’s estimated that 95 to 99 percent of people who contract poliovirus are asymptomatic. This is known as subclinical polio. Even without symptoms, people infected with poliovirus can still spread the virus and cause infection in others.
