The image is a graph titled "Reported paralytic polio cases and deaths, United States, 1910 to 2019," from Our World in Data. It shows the annual number of polio cases (in red) and deaths (in green). A sharp decline in both cases and deaths occurs after the introduction of the polio vaccine in 1957, which is marked with an arrow labeled "Vaccine introduced in 1957." The graph illustrates the dramatic impact of vaccination on reducing polio cases and fatalities over time.

Well haters gonna hate, I guess. You do you. The AMA is the only major medical association that sets policy based on direct input from it’s members. It’s also the organization that government listens to most. Its policies have evolved over my career due to listening to it’s members.
