The cited article does not support the OP’s conspiracy theories. It does not claim that Polio was “redefined”, and it does not claim Polio symptoms were caused by DDT. It correctly states that one reason for the use of DDT was to fight Polio before there were vaccines. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5467597/Children-sprayed-dangerous-pesticide-DDT-shocking-clip.html

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1852085822285136178
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
