The oral vaccine was an advancement from the original polio vaccine discovered by Dr. Jonas Salk in 1955, which had to be administered in four separate injections.

EHS photo THE WAY WE WERE All Halton District School Board schools will provide free menstrual products for students by September. Dispensing machines will be installed in female, gender-neutral and multi- stall female washrooms be- ginning now during Spring Break and continuing over the summer. "Access and availability of menstrual products in schools impacts the dignity and self-esteem of menstru- ating students and can im- pact class attendance and student achievement," said Jewel Amoah, the board's Human Rights & Equity Advisor. "In keeping with similar initiatives in neighbouring and regional school boards, as well as municipalities in Canadian and internation- al jurisdictions, free access to menstrual products sup- ports both gender and eco- nomic equity as well as to raise awareness of, and des- tigmatize, the natural bio- logical process of menstru- ation." The dispensers, which hold both tampons and pads, will cost approxi- mately $160,000 and an esti- mated $100,000 to stock an- nually. In response to student voice, the Period Poverty Action Plan initiative was approved by the board in 2019 and phased-in at four high schools the following school year.
