Excellent polio summary that goes I to how polio wasn't really caused by what was advertised. It was much more likely due to types of pesticides used during the time.

Time-Life was founded by Yale skull and bones Standard Oil Harkness Rockefeller money.

This photo is fake. Staged. Actors. These ventilators were then distributed to hospitals all over the country.

The first iron lung used in the treatment of polio victims was invented by Philip Drinker, Louis Agassiz Shaw, and James Wilson at Harvard, and tested October 12, 1928 at Children’s Hospital, Boston. The original Drinker iron lung was powered by an electric motor attached to two vacuum cleaners, and worked by changing the pressure inside the machine

From my understanding this photo was real, but it's the context that matters. This was a polio specialist unit where people from all over the country were sent.

Come on motherfucker. Show proof. Heres mine bitch.

It was taken in the auditorium of Ranchos Los Amigos Hospital in Los Angeles, which had been emptied of its rows of seating to make this picture. It was designed to show worried parents that the U.S. was ready for battle.

Are you an asshole? Does the person posting truth have to do it on a website? Or in a book? It's a platform for communication.

You dumbass.

The photo was staged whether the fact is posted on twitter or facebook or on a website.

Go fuck yourself.
