On polio, iron lungs, ventilators and respirators
Laurie Allee • 31 August 2023
❦ Someone I loved a lot had polio as a kid. She spent months in an iron lung, a year in a full-body cast, walked on crutches for life, was housebound with post-polio syndrome for three years and then died on a ventilator at the height of the pandemic.
You babies bitch about masks.
