Dr. Jonas Salk invented the vaccine against the polio. Before that the whole world was worried about the polio. Polio used to affect the most precious population, children! Two years before the invention of the polio vaccine, in US alone about 50,000 children got affected by polio. Dr. Jonas Salk did not get the patent for the vaccine, so that the vaccine became affordable for every body. Today is the 100th birth day of this hero. (28th October 2014.)
