Carol Ferguson is our District 7430 Polio Coordinator. Although unable to attend live due to a recent illness, POLIO may have been forgotten, but it's impact lives on. Post-Polio Syndrome continues to impact over 80% of survivors! The Pain and Disability from POLIO lasts a lifetime.
Carol referenced an excellent article from the Philadelphia Enquirer "We are Still Here". Many of us know of relatives and friends who have been and continue to be impacted.
Very concerning was latest information on cases in New York. Polio really has no cure and is spread by ingestion. Strongly suggested you contact your primary care physician and get boosters.
As more information becomes available we will post. Please be vigilant.
