Reply to comment by 2gat123_ in NY officials detect polio again by Unstoppable2020

Thank you for a voice of reason. No where in any of my comments did I claim anything but the facts. Maybe I'm wrong but I thought asking whether this was a wild virus or vaccine derived polio virus was an important question to be asking.

Honestly didn't know there was different variants of polio.

But CDC site linked by 2gat says that it's only one case of it in Rockland county:

> UPDATE: In July 2022, CDC was notified of a case of polio caused by vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 (VDPV2) in an unvaccinated individual from Rockland County, New York, and is consulting with the New York State Department of Health on their investigation.
