No, the probability of getting a health issue due to the vaccine has now become much higher then the probability of <i>getting polio</i>. Your comment rather suggests you don&#x27;t know much about polio: I suggest looking it up.<p>But that only applies to diseases which lack a natural harbor like polio does, where eradication is practical. Stop vaccinating for measles and oh surprise there is now an outbreak of measles. We haven&#x27;t needed to seriously vaccinate for polio for over a decade.<p>But that itself is all sorts of iffy because there are two quite different polio vaccines of different effectiveness.
