Polio, a terrible and tragic crippler of millions of young children when I was growing up appears about to be eradicated.
I just read an article that included this from snippet from Bill Gats: “…humanity could see its last case of polio this year.”

Way to go, world!

what an amazing feat! so wonderful –
It is indeed. i remember seeing victims of polio as a child; a sight my grandchildren will thankfully never have to see.
I’ve met many who suffered from polio. ANd a few who lost someone to polio. This is absolutely good news.
Indeed! I believe humanity is on the cusp of achieving several more huge medical breakthroughs.
I believe the same thing Russ.
Fantastic news!
