  1. 🧬🦠 Researchers at the #Salk Institute in #California have discovered that our immune cells carry a molecular record of both our genes and our life experiences.

    These "epigenetic fingerprints" determine whether your body mounts a mild response or a severe one when facing the exact same #virus as someone else.

  6. "In 1954, national testing began on 1 million children, ages 6-9, who became known as the Polio Pioneers. On 4.12.55, the results were announced: the vaccine was safe & effective. In the 2 yrs before the vaccine was widely available, the average # of polio cases in the U.S. was more than 45,000. By 1962, that # had dropped to 910. . . . #Salk never patented the vaccine or earned any $ from his discovery, preferring it be distributed as widely as possible."

  11. The full, evergreen post on polio:

    The US #polio epidemic peaked in 1952: 57,000+ cases, 3,145 died and 21,269 were left with paralysis.

    Dr. Jonas #Salk developed a polio vaccine in 1955. (At one point in the #1950s survey respondents found him more recognizable in this country than Dwight #Eisenhower.)

    Within two decades, domestic transmission of polio was wiped out in the #US.

    Polio never reached natural herd immunity, it was eradicated by #vaccines.
