Welcome Back Sister Polio - EV68
 

This news is scaring me just as much as ebola.

Geography in the News: Polio Returns with Tenacity

By Neal Lineback and Mandy Lineback Gritzner, Geography in the NewsTM

Polio?s Tenacity a Constant Battle

Just as the eradication of the crippling polio disease seemed within reach, it is advancing again and new questions are rising. Ignorance of science and medicine by the general public, migration from war-torn regions and possibly a new strain of the virus are to blame.

The recent discovery in California and elsewhere of a mystery virus, perhaps somehow related to the polio virus, is perplexing scientists, although the symptoms appear milder and perhaps of less duration in victims. The virus called EV68 is an enterovirus belonging to the family of polio viruses. According to Time magazine (Mar. 10, 2014), 20 children have suffered polio-like symptoms in California in the past 18 months, with a dozen paralyzed in one or more limbs. Heath officials don?t know whether the EV68 is to blame, as these are apparently not full-blown polio cases, but it is certainly cause for worry.

Come on now, EV68 is just searching for a better life...:upsidedow

Most likely spread by those who profit from the disease :2 cents:

There's profit in misery. :thumbsup
Belgium is a bit far from Central and South America but anything is possible.

EV-68 is not polio but it is similar in its symptoms. - I would have thought Glaxo would have been sued out of business a long time ago.

Those who refuse to vaccinate should ot be allowed to live amongst us. Go live somewhere else.
