Polio Vaccinations
Posted by Panzey '62 on June 6, 2022, 9:53 pm
I just read an article about mass inoculations against polio beginning in 1954. By August 1955 about 4 million shots had been administered. Does anyone remember what year students in Forest were vaccinated, and whether nurses came to the school and gave the shots in the hallways or whether we walked across the street to the health department? I recall both scenarios but I'm not sure for which vaccines. Anyone have a recollection?
