Between 75 and 50 years ago, polio epidemics occurred frequently with many people dying and many others crippled for life. Many old people today must use walkers, canes, and wheelchairs because of the crippling effects of polio. Then 50 years ago vaccines became available. Polio ended in North America, Europe, and the Soviet Union. Shortly after that it ended in Latin America.
In the Western World, the effects of polio are mainly seen in the old.
In predominately Muslim countries, vaccination is relatively unknown. Burkas prevent others from seeing women's bodies deformed from polio.
Outside of Muslim countries, except for India, polio no longer exists.
