Polio

In honour of wild polio being eliminated in Africa this week, we explore the roots of the disease, and the study of it over the years (and where it failed- because of course we have thoughts about that). We learn more interesting facts about Tuskegee, conspiracy, a man named Heine, and much much more. Join us here, and on Instagram where we'll be posting some interesting images of the history of polio @InSickness2020. See you next time!
