From your link: "In 1954, the March of Dimes organized a national field trial of 1.8 million schoolchildren, the largest medical study in history. The data was processed and on April 12, 1955, six years from when Salk began his research, the Salk polio vaccine was declared “safe and effective.”

Refusal or indecision about the Covid vaccine may be a lot of things, but stupid it ain't (a reference to your previous posts citing "stupidity"). Not yet anyway. I have to question whether the people who make those kinds of judgments really know all they need to know before making such criticisms. And some people say that people who make uninformed criticisms are "stupid." I wouldn't say they're stupid, of course, and I'm not saying you are.

According to this article....ADE is not an issue with the Covid vaccines, In fact the mRNA vaccines are actually safer than traditional vaccines regarding ADE .......
