>> SV-40 (which the government had accidentally infected the populace with through the polio vaccine)
WOW!
Really? This is the first I’ve heard of this. Does that mean that all of us who got the polio vaccine are susceptible?
I’ll be looking for the interview, but for those of us who miss it, do you have any more info on the topic?
ThankQ! And thanks for all you do! Great posts.

No depends on the year you got it.
I forget the exact year but it was in the 50s. I got my last polio shot the year before this one was released.
I do recall the first year of this vaccine program, because all the kids at school that got it that day got sick as dogs and were throwing up all over the place that afternoon. (they used to line us all up in lines and we’d file into the gym where several Dr. and Nurses were waiting to give you the shot). The previous year almost no one got sick.
Just one source below, but if you do a search, there’s lots on the topic-pro and con:

SV40 stands for Simian Virus 40. SV40 was the 40th virus found in rhesus monkey kidney cells when these cells were used to make the polio vaccine. This virus contaminated both the Inactivated Polio Vaccine (IPV) created by Dr. Jonas Salk and the Oral or “Live” Polio Vaccine (OPV) created by Dr. Albert Sabin.
