Original Note:
US did not ban the DTP vaccine, but replaced it with the DTaP. The DTP vaccine never killed 1-in-300 children, and continues to be used in many countries including Poland. WHO recommends countries using DTP to continue, instead of switching to DTaP. https://www.techarp.com/science/us-ban-dtp-vaccine-kids-facts/ https://www.nature.com/articles/d42859-020-00013-8 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4975064/ https://www.cdc.gov/diphtheria/hcp/vaccine-recommendations/index.html https://cdn.who.int/media/docs/default-source/immunization/position_paper_documents/pertussis/pertussis-pp-2015-summary.pdf https://cdn.who.int/media/docs/default-source/immunization/mi4a/dt_market_study_public_summary-may2019.pdf https://cdn.who.int/media/docs/default-source/pvg/global-vaccine-safety/dtp-vaccine-rates-information-sheet.pdf
