I'm with you, didn't realize there were any who still did. Brings back memories. I had Rheumatic Fever as a kid and missed my entire year of first grade. Teachers came to my house and many of them were also teaching kids who had polio. We had frequent get togethers with all the kids in a teachers class and several would come in Iron lungs but all I knew eventually were able to get away from them.
