Unlikely, there is now a vaccine for polio and now polio has become weakened to a point where people who have may not experience all the severe symptoms as when the outbreak hit. for example: polio would cause lung failure in the time of the outbreak but now it is very uncommon to see in polio patients. Just take the vaccine and you'll be safe.
