Abstract

Polio comes from a wild polio-virus that infects children and has a high mortality rate. Once infected, there is no cure. So in the face of polio, more attention is paid to prevention measures and the follow-up treatment of survivors of polio disease. It covers the background to polio, the international response, and what has been achieved over the years in polio control. Polio prevention is divided into a vaccine component and daily protection, with the Inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) and Oral polio vaccine (OPV), OPV being an oral vaccine and IPV requiring a medical professional to administer it. The two are most effective when used together. Next is the daily protection, such as isolating close contacts and paying attention to human hygiene, etc. For the follow-up treatment of polio survivors that is, post-poliomyelitis patients. A variety of methods are used in this treatment, and the final clinical results show that non-pharmacologic treatment is more conducive to improving patients' lives and active treatment.
