Summary (SOURCE)
There’s an alarming polio outbreak in the Democratic of the Congo (DRC) that you have probably never heard of. Part of the reason is that it is overshadowed by Ebola. But part is because it is caused not by the wild virus that is hanging on by a thread in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and perhaps Nigeria, but by a rare mutant derived from the weakened live virus in the oral polio vaccine, which has regained its neurovirulence and ability to spread. Public health experts have worked for months to stamp out the virus, but it keeps spreading. It has already paralyzed 29 children, and on 21 June a case was reported on the border with Uganda, far outside the known outbreak zone, heightening fears that the virus will sweep across Africa. The DRC is “absolutely” the most worrisome polio outbreak today, says Michel Zaffran, who heads the Global Polio Eradication Initiative in Geneva at the World Health Organization.

VLA Comment: Now there are two polio strains causing polio. At least the “Wild” polio strain has organic underpinnings to which the body has a chance to conquer, although the rumor is that the virus originally became virolent (expecially as it pertains to water ways and lakes) from the runoff of the agricultural lands using DDT, Alachlore and Atrazine.
