Years ago, many got 3 shots to fend against polio.  Have any bad effects shown up in some from doing this by now?

Update:

@ God - Wrong, wrong, wrong.  Most of us are still kicking and going strong.  Sorry.

    The answers to this are disingenuous. The polio vaccine and the Covid mRNA vaccine are two different animals. The mRNA vaccine was deemed dangerous a FEW YEARS AGO because of limited research and not enough testing on what it will do to a person long term. Comparing the polio vaccine to this? Not the same. 

    Plus, I browsed the answers and not ONE gives any source of proof of what they’re saying...they just say, “oh NO! Wrong wrong wrong! The people who had the polio vaccine are had NO bad reactions! None! Not a one.”

    Followed by one guys anecdotal tale of him having it. On this issue, bring facts. Like, it’s a fact that mRNA vaccines were deemed dangerous until recently...it’s also a fact that finding documentation on this phenomenon is much harder to do today on the internet than it was before Covid happened.

    No - and that is supported by the fact that the generation that was vaccinated against polio is now living longer than people did before- so apparently we didn't suffer any longterm side effects. My aunt had polio in her teens. She recovered and let an active life, but near the end she had the typical muscle degeneration and became very weak. Having the disease is ALWAYS worse than side effects from the vaccine!

    Polio is considered eradicated in the United States. 

    An extremely small percentage of people that took the weakened polio ended up with polio. People that took the inactivated shot came away with a sore arm, just like over other virus shots.

    Most of those people got old and died.
