Ep. 237 - Albert Sabin and the polio vaccine

When Albert Sabin graduated from medical school in New York, his mentor encouraged him to focus his career on a killer that had terrorized a generation: Polio. So when Sabin accepted a job as a medical researcher at the University of Cincinnati, he did just that. After solving the mysteries of the virus, he made Cincinnati the first American city immune to the illness. www.ohiomysteries.com [email protected] www.patreon.com/ohiomysteries www.twitter.com/mysteriesohio www.facebook.com/ohiomysteries Additional music: New Horizon - Aderin; Audionautix- The Great Unknown; The Great Phospher- Daniel Birch Learn more about your ad choices.
