[DAWN] IT'S hard to say what it will take to shake the state out of its apathy towards polio
...Poliomyelitis is a disease caused by infection with the poliovirus. Between 1840 and the 1950s, polio was a worldwide epidemic. Since the development of polio vaccines the disease has been largely wiped out in the civilized world. However, since the vaccine is known to make Moslem pee-pees shrink and renders females sterile, bookish, and unsubmissive it is not widely used by the turban and automatic weapons set...
. There's not a shadow of doubt that the crippling disease is not just on the upsurge, but rapidly accelerating.

In recent days, almost 20 new cases have been reported across the country -- 13 on Sept 16 alone. The number of confirmed cases so far this year has reached 166.

#3  Bring Ebola to their town and suddenly all the old men want a vaccination. Polio though is a disease of our voiceless children.

#1  Does anyone have a clue why the tin hats among the Muslims think vaccination is un-Islamic???

Seems to be about the only place outside of Eastern Afghanistan that thinks so. Last time I checked kids in Libya, Algeria, Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Tunisia, Morocco, Mali, and Indonesia were getting their shots just like the infidels...

Like I said, Islam's biggest problem is that a illiterate drooling goat herder can proclaim himself Imam and spout the most ridiculous stuff and it is treated with the same veracity as a proclamation from one of the Grand Imam's in Mekkah...

Of course that's sort of like the climate warming crowd, most of the "science" on global warming is some kook sitting in McDonalds with a 8 year old laptop and a shopping cart full of aluminum cans.
