Great new info on “intradermal jet injectors” (click on blue box below:)
(Pls pardon if a duplicate email)
"Polio Eradication: It’s now in sight. “No needle, No fear, No pain”. How can the injectable polio vaccine (often referred to as the “Salk” vaccine) be delivered this way in some of the most war torn areas of the world? In 2025, 1.2 million children were given the IPV with the new “intradermal jet injectors”, developed specifically for the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI)"
No needles, No fear, No pain ? How can that be? Thanks to the GPEI, it’s being done.

At the Rotary International Convention, polio experts report on eradication effort...By Etelka Lehoczky and John M. Cunninghamon...
"While McGovern and the other panelists mainly emphasized the positive, they did express one warning. On social media and even in mainstream news sources, they said, false narratives are both widespread and pernicious. McGovern said the U.S. media failed to accurately report the level of congressional support for eradication."
“For five straight years, the U.S. government has appropriated US$265 million for polio eradication. If you read the news, you would never guess that,” he said.""
