Forum Overview :: Motherfucking News :: Polio wasn't that infectious

[quote name="Rafiki"][quote name="The Center for Disease Control"]Communicability Poliovirus is highly infectious, with seroconversion rates among susceptible household contacts of children nearly 100%, and greater than 90% among susceptible household contacts of adults. Persons infected with poliovirus are most infectious in the days immediately before and after the onset of symptoms, but poliovirus may remain present in the stool for up to 6 weeks. [/quote] [quote name="blackwater"]COVID-19 can infect many animals (stray dogs, cats, etc.) and is extremely infectious. [/quote] [quote name="CDC"]A small number of pets worldwide, including cats and dogs, have been reported to be infected with the virus that causes COVID-19, mostly after close contact with people with COVID-19. Based on the available information to date, the risk of animals spreading COVID-19 to people is considered to be low. At this time, there is no evidence that animals play a significant role in spreading SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, to people. [/quote] My source is the CDC and not Facebook, so take it with a grain of salt. [quote]I don't think we can wipe it out with the present level of technology. [/quote] What more effective technology do we need if people stubbornly refuse to use it in the first place? Do we need a technology to put vaccines in the water like fluoride, or what are you imagining? [quote]We almost wiped out polio except that because of <a href="https://www.grunge.com/321975/the-tragic-true-story-of-the-cias-fake-vaccination-campaign">the CIA's fake vaccination campaign</a>, people in Afghanistan and Pakistan don't trust our health care workers any more. [/quote] So? I'm criticizing people in our country refusing a free COVID vaccine because a Democrat is president. We also wiped out polio in the US because people got vaccinated. [/quote]
