"Everyone ought to draw from Nigeria’s experience, which showed that battling polio is not only about the vaccinations but also about waging a complex war of logistics and, ultimately, winning over the hearts and minds of people."

The end of polio in Africa?

Now more than ever, the battle against polio turns to Pakistan and Afghanistan.

喬納斯·愛德華·索爾克（英語：Jonas Edward Salk，又譯為約納斯·沙克，1914年10月28日－1995年6月23日），美國實驗醫學家、病毒學家，主要以發現和製造出首例安全有效的「脊髓灰質炎/小兒麻痺疫苗」而知名。他出生在紐約的一個俄裔德系猶太移民家庭。雖然他的父母沒有受過多少正式教育，但他們決心讓兒子獲得成功。索爾克在紐約大學醫學院時就十分成功，但後來他選擇做實驗醫學家，而不是當一名醫生。

1955年「脊髓灰質炎疫苗」發明前，脊髓灰質炎是戰後美國對公共健康威脅最大的疾病之一。每年流行的情況都越來越嚴重。1952年的大流行是美國歷史上最嚴重的爆發。那年報導的病例有58000人，3145人死亡， 21269人殘疾，多數犧牲者是小孩。

90年代初，讀了Françoise Gilot著的： Matisse and Picasso: A Friendship in Art, Doubleday, 1990, New York: Anchor Books, 1992,覺得應該翻譯。不過我當時是某公司小主管，當然不可能。2015.8.22 聽了此訪談，才知道Gilot女士的"婚事：

In 1969, Gilot was introduced to Jonas Salk, the polio vaccine pioneer,^[14] at the home of mutual friends in La Jolla, California. Their shared appreciation of architecture led to a brief courtship and they were married in 1970 in Paris.^[15] They remained married until Salk's death in 1995. During her marriage, she continued painting in New York, La Jolla, and Paris.^[16]
