Reports of a "Mysterious Polio-Like Illness" paralyzing children have been in the press recently.
This is a follow-up to that article.
Enterovirus D68 is suspected. Polio is also an Enterovirus.
Let's examine how this could happen. Enterovirus D68 may act similarly to Poliovirus.
Polio Virus, like the other enteroviruses of today, was normally harmless when present in the gut as it normally would be. It usually only manifested as cold symptoms. Most people never knew that they had encountered the Polio virus.
History and Medical Journals document two things that made the Poliovirus virulent so that it paralyzed and sometimes killed people.
These two things could cause what was known as...
"PROVOCATION PARALYSIS or PROVOCATION POLIOMYELITIS"
(#1) TONSILLECTOMIES and (#2) NEEDLES
You can click below to look at these 2 studies at the National Center for Biotechnology Information website:
QUOTE From #2 Paper Above:"Skeletal muscle injury is known to predispose its sufferers to neurological complications of concurrent poliovirus infections. This phenomenon, labeled “provocation poliomyelitis,” continues to cause numerous cases of childhood paralysis due to the administration of unnecessary injections to children in areas where poliovirus is endemic. Recently, it has been reported that intramuscular injections may also increase the likelihood of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis in recipients of live attenuated poliovirus vaccines.
Dr. Suzanne Humphries has made this chapter in her book available for free here, because she feels this is such important information for everybody at this time.
EXCERPT BELOW FROM: 
Dissolving Illusions: Disease, Vaccines, and the Forgotten History by Dr. Suzanne Humphries, MD
Did those doctors unwittingly cause the deaths of the children by inducing bulbar polio — the most serious type of polio that affects the brain stem?
Were those children previously tonsillectomized, a well-documented underlying factor not just in bulbar polio but in poliomyelitis incidence? For poliovirus to cause damage requires access to the inside of the body through “peripheral nerve damage,” something which tonsillectomy provides in abundance. The invasive procedure of surgical tonsil removal raised the risk of bulbar polio, as revealed in numerous studies and reports.
Healthy tonsils were removed by surgeons for various financially rewarding but scientifically unsound reasons. Fifty to eighty percent of middle-class and upper-class children in the United States were needlessly subjected to tonsillectomies in the polio epidemic era. Anderson showed in his large group from a 1943 epidemic in Utah that poliomyelitis was more than 2.5 times more prevalent in tonsillectomized children than age-matched non-tonsillectomized children. The incidence of bulbar poliomyelitis was 16 times higher in tonsillectomized children than in the general child population. Forty-six percent of the bulbar polio cases had been preceded by recent tonsillectomy.
Cunning reported in his series of 0- to 10-year-old bulbar poliomyelitis cases that the ratio of tonsillectomized to non-tonsillectomized was 6 to 1. In 1971 Dr. Ogra reported in the New England Journal of Medicine that post-operatively, previously existing pharyngealanti-polio antibody titers decreased sixfold to eightfold.
So there you have it .... In the presence of the Polio Enterovirus already in the throat, Peripheral Nerve Damage caused by the operation to remove children's tonsils, sometimes caused the Poliovirus to do tremendous damage.
It seems possible that the Enterovirus D68 recently associated with paralysis in children, could act the same way today as the Polio Virus did.
.... The Next Part of This Series Will Be About Needles or the Injection of Vaccines Causing Provocation Paralysis --- PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR MORE!

I know that this is a very controversial topic ...
but if you care about children as much as I care about children...
surely we can all be civil and help each other discover the best way forward for all our children and future generations.
Fascinating read! I had heard this before but good to see this documentation. Suzanne is a great doctor and one of the few who will speak up about the true issues.
Here's an interesting book regarding sugar and how it can play a part in the immune system function potentially related to polio.
"Simply stated, sugar lowers immunity. In 1951, Benjamin Sandler, M.D., a physician from Northern Carolina, wrote a book entitled Diet Prevents Polio. Dr. Sandler's work with rabbits and monkeys convinced him that high amounts of sugar in the diet made one more susceptible to polio. During the polio epidemic of 1948-49, he appeared on an Asheville radio station urging parents not to feed their children refined sugar or foods containing sugar such as ice cream, candy, and soft drinks. His admonitions also ran in local newspapers. In 1948, the incidence of polio in Northern Carolina was 2,402 cases. In 1949, after adopting the "Sandler diet," the rate had fallen to 214 cases. During this time, the national incidence of polio (39 states) had risen."

Thanks. I think there are often multiple factors in why someone gets ill and another does not.
I know that sugar is certainly harmful to health.
Agreed! There are numerous layers to all protection schemes IMHO. Sugar is extremely difficult to avoid as they morph the chemical structure and play the name game.
