Original Note:
Polio has been eliminated from the U.S. thanks to widespread polio vaccination. In the early 1950s before polio vaccines, polio caused more than 15,000 cases of paralysis annually. Following intro of vaccines the number of polio cases fell rapidly to less than 100 in the 1960s https://www.cdc.gov/polio/us/index.html?CDC_AA_refVal=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fpolio%2Fwhat-is-polio%2Fpolio-us.html
