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.
Vaccines stopped polio.

At the end of The Empire Strikes Back the rebels are desolate. Han Solo is frozen in carbonite. Luke Skywalker has been defeated in battle by Darth Vader, losing a hand in the process. The Emperor's victory was total.... until the Jedi returned.
Not sure what made me think of that.
