The first Salk polio vaccine was a killer. Dr. Alton Ochsner of New Orleans gave his grandchild a fatal shot of it while trying to promote the deadly vaccine in a live TV broadcast. At least the child didn’t die on-air - it took 11 days for the vaccine to “work”. His granddaughter did better- she survived, but she did get polio.
So while Salk is praised as a saint today, let’s not forget the dead bodies that his reputation was built on.

Alex Jones has said his grandmother (?) developed polio from the early vaccine.
