Reply to comment by oxfouzer in Gates Foundation pledges $1.2B to eradicate polio globally by JediMasterBuddha

It was only in 2017 that vaccine derived polio overtook wild polio infections - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polio_vaccine#/media/File:Number_of_cVDPV_cases_since_2000.png

However, in the US vaccines they use inactive polio strains (IVP), presumably more funding can help move to IVP in Pakistan and Afghanistan, we well as help the uptake of vaccines in general.

Polio is and always has been a scam, regardless.

I was as naïve as you once, too. It’s definitely harder to learn the truth than to just repeat the lie
