Can't wait to hear the conspiracy theories that come out of this from the GQP nut jobs. It is interesting how they test wastewater to look for potential spread of such things... Are you anti-vaxxers opposed to a polio vaccine?

NBC New York reports:
There are new concerns about the potential spread of polio in New York, with the state health commissioner saying there could be “hundreds” of people infected as new evidence shows the virus has been found in samples from multiple counties.
“Based on earlier polio outbreaks, New Yorkers should know that for every one case of paralytic polio observed, there may be hundreds of other people infected,” New York State Health Commissioner Dr. Mary Bassett said.
“Coupled with the latest wastewater findings, the Department is treating the single case of polio as just the tip of the iceberg of much greater potential spread.”
