    Time to start investing in iron lung and wheelchair manufacturers. My late dad had polio when he was in his 20s. It almost killed him and left him crippled for life. The vaccine was rolled out a few years later and he was always thankful that it stopped so many people going through what he did.

    Then this dipshit comes along…

      My grandfather had polio, and walked with a can his entire life. At least that’s what I can tell from pictures, he died before any of his grandchildren were born.

        I met a man who had polio. His party trick was being able to twist his leg at the knee to put his heel next to his ear, because the paralysis caused his leg to waste away.
