“Once I Had Polio”
Born in the UK, Janet was seven when polio came her way. With her parents beside her, she followed a path that many survivors can understand.
Post-Polio Syndrome came with unexpected symptoms that were complex not just for her, but for her physician as well.

This document from the Vaccine Education Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia is clear and concise.
Post-Polio Syndrome is affecting polio survivors all over the world.
Countries with young survivors are accutely aware of the importance of keeping up with their vaccination efforts and parents are grateful.
If Polio Exists Anywhere, it is a threat to Children Everywhere.
WHAT is the “Plus” in Polio Plus?

World Polio Day is October 24th.
