Polio: They Poisoned a Generation Then Lied About the Cure
Today, we dismantle another sacred cow of modern medicine: the polio vaccine. The story is even more shocking. This isn’t a tale of a virus conquered, but of a diagnosis manipulated, a population poisoned, and a “miracle” shot that delivered a legacy of cancer.
The Benign Bug: The Myth of the Killer Virus
First, let’s shatter the primary myth. We’re taught to live in fear of the poliomyelitis (“polio”) virus, a terrifying pathogen that randomly crippled children. The reality, according to the actual clinical data, is utterly different.
Poliomyelitis is not a virus; it’s a description. It describes inflammation of the spinal cord that can lead to paralysis. The virus is just one possible cause.
And that virus? It’s not the predator we’ve been told. The brutal truth is that 95% of people infected with the polio virus show no symptoms at all, while about 4% have only minor, flu-like symptoms. Less than 1% experience any paralysis, and only a tiny fraction of that 1% suffer long-term paralysis.
So why the terrifying epidemics of the 1940s and 1950s? If the virus was so common and mostly harmless, what caused the waves of paralysis? The answer isn’t found in a virology lab, but in a can of pesticide.
The Real Culprit? “DDT is Good for Me!” 🐛
During the very era of the worst polio outbreaks, America was engaged in a love affair with a chemical weapon repackaged as a savior: DDT.
This potent neurotoxin, invented in the 19th century as a nerve agent, was sprayed liberally everywhere. It was sprayed in schools, in public pools, on food, and even on children themselves. Ad campaigns featured smiling kids with slogans like “DDT is good for me!” It was a mass, uncontrolled poisoning experiment.
And the symptom of acute DDT poisoning? Damage to the anterior horn cells of the spinal cord, leading to paralysis. In other words, it produces symptoms clinically identical to paralytic polio.
Now, look at the graphs. When you chart the rise and fall of DDT usage against the rise and fall of polio cases, the truth is undeniable. The lines are identical, with polio cases peaking exactly six months after DDT usage peaks.
As DDT was gradually phased out, polio mysteriously “declined.” The connection is not just plausible; it’s staring us in the face. The “polio” epidemic was likely, in large part, a mass poisoning.
But the deception goes even deeper than a hidden cause. In 1955, the very year Jonas Salk’s vaccine was released, the authorities simply changed the rules of the game. They made it statistically impossible for the vaccine to fail.
Before 1955: A case of polio was diagnosed after two exams, only 24 hours apart, showed even partial paralysis. This broad definition kept case numbers high.
After 1955: The definition was changed to require paralysis to persist for 60 days. Since most temporary paralysis resolves within 60 days, cases “magically” vanished from the polio column overnight.
After 1955: Symptoms like “aseptic meningitis” (clinically identical to non-paralytic polio) were now recorded as a separate disease.
They didn’t eradicate a disease; they eradicated a diagnosis. They moved the goalposts and declared victory. It was one of the greatest statistical frauds ever perpetrated on the human race.
The Vaccine Itself: From Paralysis to Cancer
And the final, horrifying layer to this story is that the “cure” was itself a source of disease.
First, there was the Cutter Incident. A bad batch of the Salk vaccine, containing live polio virus that was not properly “killed,” was injected into children. It caused over 40,000 cases of polio, leaving 200 children permanently paralyzed and 10 dead. This wasn’t a rare accident; it was a testament to the inherent danger of the vaccine.
But even the “safe” vaccines had a dark secret. The polio virus for the vaccines was grown on kidney cells from rhesus monkeys. In 1960, an NIH scientist named Bernice Eddy discovered something terrifying: these monkey cells were contaminated with a monkey virus, Simian Virus 40 (SV40).
She found that when she injected these cells into hamsters, they developed rampant, vicious cancers. And this SV40-contaminated vaccine had already been injected into over 100 million Americans.
Dr. Maurice Hilleman, a leading vaccinologist, later confirmed the finding and the cover-up. SV40 is a known oncogene. In other words: SV40 has the genetic tools to hijack a cell’s normal safety mechanisms, disable its defenses, and push it down the road to becoming a cancerous tumor. Studies have found traces of SV40 in human brain, lung, and bone cancers decades later. The legacy of the polio vaccine isn’t just a statistical lie; it’s a biological time bomb that was willingly injected into a generation.
The story of polio is the ultimate medical conspiracy. A common, mostly harmless virus was scapegoated. A devastating environmental poison (DDT) was ignored. The definition of the disease was changed to fabricate a success story. And the final “solution” delivered paralysis and cancer to millions.
They lied about smallpox.
They lied about polio.
How many more lies are we still being told today?

In the fall of 1953 I developed a case of Polio . . . was living in a very nice community on the edge of a City. Went to a school with close to 300 students. I knew of 2 other cases in the school, might have been more in lower grades.
Thanks to an on the ball Dr. I was quickly admitted to Hospital and started treatment.
Don’t recall ever being near or around any DDT spraying. I suffered some paralysis on the left side and went to therapy for a period and fully recovered. The other student in my class recovered as well but the 3rd wound up in an Iron Lung, later recovered bht had a withered arm.
He passed away about a decade ago. Myself and the other guy are still here . . . I was 10 and they were 9 at the time.
I remember the Oral Vaccine in 1957 and the kids lining up in the Gym to get it . . . I ignored the thing because I figured I had immunity. Used the same logic for the Covid, as my wife had Covid before we knew what it was in Nov 2019 as did many friends & relatives. I got a sore throat and cough for a couple of days.
