It's that time of year again!
Polio epidemic 1947/9 Maidenhead
« on: Thursday 18 September 08 11:27 UTC (UK) »
I wonder if anyone has information about the polio (infantile Paralysis then) epidemic in Maidenhead in 1947/9.  There were three deaths and thirteen reported cases nursed at the Isolation Hospital.  Also the annual Littlewick Green Baby Show was cancelled for 1947.
Regards,
Abiam
