Many people infected with polio don't show any symptoms. Some become temporarily paralyzed; for others, it's permanent. In 1952, the polio epidemic reached a peak in the U.S.: almost 58,000 reported cases and more than 3,000 deaths.

Many polio victims couldn't breathe on their own because of paralysis in their chest muscles. The iron lung a simple, air-tight chamber that regulates air pressure kept patients breathing until the paralysis passed. At the peak of the epidemic, rows of iron lung ventilators filled hospital rooms.

On April 12, 1955, Dr. Jonas Salk and his research team at the University of Pittsburgh released the first successful vaccine for polio. In 1979, the U.S. reported its last case of the paralyzing virus.

Before the polio vaccine was developed, doctors tried to treat patients with ultraviolet light, which was known to inactivate the virus in the lab.

Wiping Out Polio: How The U.S. Snuffed Out A Killer

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has contacted three passengers who were sitting near the man, who remains in a critical condition, on a flight from Dubai but says it has no evidence the infection was passed on.

A MAN in critical condition with a potentially deadly viral disease has been transferred from a Glasgow hospital to a specialist unit in London.

The 38-year-old man was diagnosed with Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) when he returned to Glasgow on Tuesday from Kabul, Afghanistan.

He travelled back to Scotland on a connecting flight from Dubai, Emirates flight EK027, which landed at Glasgow Airport at 12.35pm on Tuesday.

The man was treated in isolation at Gartnavel General Hospital's Brownlee Centre, which specialises in infectious disease.

This morning he was flown to London's Royal Free Hospital in isolation facilities with the support of the Scottish Ambulance Service and the RAF.

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde said it has contacted three passengers who were sitting near him on the flight from Dubai. It said it has no evidence that the infection was passed on but the three passengers will be monitored.

The risk to all other passengers on the flight from Dubai is "extremely low".

The man was on a flight from Dubai

Dr Syed Ahmed, the health board's consultant in public health who is co-ordinating investigations into the case, said: "The risk of person-to-person transmission of Crimean-Congo viral haemorrhagic fever is extremely low as it can only be transmitted by direct contact with infected blood or body fluids.

Killer Congo virus man is moved from Glasgow to specialist London unit

THE victim - who is in a critical condition - was rushed to hospital after returning to Glasgow on a flight from Dubai.

A MAN was fighting for his life in a Scottish hospital last night after contracting a killer virus known as Crimean Congo haemorrhagic fever.

The 38-year-old was rushed to hospital within three hours of returning to Glasgow on a connecting flight from Dubai on Tuesday.

Health chiefs are trying to find anyone who has been in contact with the victim, including passengers on Emirates flight EK027.

Victims suffer flu-like symptoms, accompanied by red eyes, hot flushes and red spots within three to 12 days. The virus attacks bone marrow and blood vessels, causing haemorrhages in the eyes, mouth, skin and around the internal organs. It kills in up to 30 per cent of cases.

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde stressed that the risk of contracting the disease was extremely low but a helpline has been set up for anyone worried about it. Doctors only confirmed the case of CCHF, which is spread by ticks, last night after laboratory test.

The victim is being kept in isolation at Gartnavels Brownlee Centre for Infectious and Communicable Diseases in a critical condition.

Risk areas for contracting the virus are Africa, Middle East, south-east Europe and Asia.

An NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde spokeswoman said: The risk of person to person transmission of this virus is extremely low.

As a precautionary measure those who have been in close contact with the patient are being contacted to ensure theres no transmission.

Killer Congo virus horror as man battles for life in Scots hospital

The parents of a seriously ill toddler who has defied the odds to survive a killer virus pleaded with a local authority last night to fast-track a housing transfer for his sake.

Deirdre and Vincent Collins from Gurranabraher in Cork said they are becoming increasingly frustrated with the delays as Daniel, two, faces a fresh battle with illness.

"I feel that our case is not being given the attention it deserves," Deirdre said.

"The council needs to stop thinking of Daniel as a file and think of him as an actual person."

Daniel, who was born healthy on June 24, 2010, was struck down a week later with a rare form of the Adeno Virus.

Known as the killer cold virus, it attacked his respiratory system preventing him from breathing on his own.

A medical team from Sweden was flown into Cork on July 11, 2010 to perform a lifesaving heart and lung bypass, and Daniel was put on a special machine to supply him with oxygen.

He was transferred to the Karolinska Hospital in Stockholm where he spent 1,224 hours on the machine a new medical record for a baby.
