Polio vaccine

I ran into a childhood polio survivor the other day. it got me thinking about how the public responded to a vaccine and the comparisons to the current pandemic.

Can anyone here offer any insight into what was going on when the polio vaccine was first created? Was there as much skepticism as there is now with COVID? What was it like to live when polio was a threat?

Edit.. Keep the politics out of this. Both sides do bad things. I'm curious about people who were around back then.
