I remember the Illinois Research Hospital back in 1963-64 I had a cousin age 33 that got polio in Sept. 1963 they put him in an Iron Lung and he stayed there for over 9 months. He was paralyzed from his shoulders down. He went home that way and lived for 16 years. I think he was the last person in Chicago to get polio.
