Anth did not even know that the polio virus was still around. Just
look at the beginning of this discussion:
Anth says:

This gives you an idea of how clueless Anth is about polio. Until
recently he did not even know the virus is still alive and well and
causing death and paralysis. (note: I realize that viruses are not
really alive, the use of alive and well was an expression in case Anth
was thinking about using THAT strawman argument).
And note that Anth has STILL not answered the question of what he
thinks would happen if his society stopped vaccinating and were
exposed to polio from someone infected entering the country from a
polio endemic country.
When I originally asked the question Anth said he could not answer
because he did not know if the virus has been wiped out. Now Anth
knows that the virus is NOT wiped out. But Anth STILL won't answer the
question. Instead Anth lies, makes strawman arguments and diversions
and accuses me of doing the very things that he is doing. Just watch.
Now Anth may snip my entire discussion and accuse me of diversion.
Pot, kettle, black. Anth is so dishonest that he won't even identify
what he is accusing me of so I could answer it. Sound like someone
else in this newsgroup.

Rich
