To get rid of Poliovirus we may need to take away personal rights. As wrong as that sounds, to get rid of this once and for all everyone needs to be vaccinated. No excuses. This may not seem as big as a deal to Americans anymore, but third world countries still see cases of this disease year in and year out. This is a global effort to completely wipe out the virus as a whole, and some counties, such as Nigeria, refuse to comply. People forget, that before a vaccine, there were more than 15,000 cases of paralysis in the United States in a single year. It only takes one outbreak. Did you get your child vaccinated?
