Back in the 1930s, 40s and 50s, polio epidemics were a regular and frightening feature of summertime in the U.S. The invention of the polio vaccine drastically reduced the number of people afflicted with this virus, but those who survived may have consequences decades after recovery.

Guest: Richard Bruno, HD, PhD, Director of the Post-Polio Institute and author, The Polio Paradox
