I was teaching first grade in 54-55 and the first group of kids received the Salk Vaccine.
It was a miracle to all of us.

I was a first grader that year, moving from Colorado to Orange County over Christmas holiday break.
Probably got the vaccine that year in California. Had a neighbor kid down the street wearing braces and on crutches with polio.
Today I have an extreme reaction, to the no vaccine crowd, because I seriously doubt they saw the polio sufferers, pre vaccine.
