A member asked:
I live in nyc and i hear that polio is going around again, if my kids, who are now in their mid 30s, were fully vaccinated as children, are they still protected?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: adults immunized in childhood are immune and protected. The main risk is for people who still are children and were not vaccinated.
