Polio vaccine and cancer

[badgergrl]

Someone on my facebook page just posted a meme that the cdc has admitted that it caused 84 million cases of cancer with the vaccine. I have found a lot of science blog post debunking but nothing it from any scientific journals. Anyone have a good response ?

I would ask for a source for that claim.

Also there are approximately 1.6 million cases of cancer every year in the US. So the CDC said that literally every single case of cancer in the past 70 years was caused by the polio vaccine? Ummm no.

Perfect response!

I ALWAYS see this stuff where the CDC has admitted some heinous thing. The source is always a meme, real farmacy, health news nut, or some other non-reputable source. I love how they think if something like that really happened, the "mainstream media" would cover it up.

The polio vaccine didn't even EXIST 70 years ago! It must have magical time-traveling cancer-causing powers!

Would guess it is some nutty spin off of the Polio SV-40 contamination

... Because cancer didn't exist before the polio vaccine. Duh.

I see this one a lot and I always ask, "Oh, yeah? What kind of cancer, exactly?"
