Iron lungs now gone, thanks to vaccinations

When I was a child, one of the biggest fears during the summer was that I would get polio. Every hospital had rooms full of iron lings for those who were unlucky. These are all gone now thanks to vaccinations which we received in school. I don’t think organic foods, no matter how hard you throw them, will kill the polio virus.
