Polio is on the Front Pages of British Newspapers: Polio is on the front pages of British newspapers again for the first time in decades. What a time to be alive, right?
For those of you who missed it, a few days ago the UK government declared a “national incident” after traces of the polio virus were detected in sewage from North London.
Yes, a “national incident”…for traces…found in sewage.
This is a massive escalation, even compared to the pandemic. Covid and Monkeypox at least had the good taste to wait for a single person to actually have the disease (allegedly) before hitting the big red panic button.
