Everything I've read about polio makes me think it was a terrible, 
terrible disease. (Aside: I read someone pointing out that the most 
people who had polio experienced it as a stomach disorder, and that what 
we remember today as Polio could be called "long Polio", a rarer, but 
much more severe manifestation - their point was that we have not yet 
realized the full consequences of long Covid).

Wasn't warm springs the place where FDR went to recover with his bout of 
Polio?

You mother has my greatest respect.
