Original Note:
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
