Reporter sorrow, fear, hospitals overwhelmed, closures, all due to the deadly coronavirus and all hallmarks of another deadly and mysterious virus that terrified americans, starting at the turn of the 20th century polio. One huge outbreak in new york city june 1916. Panic soon begins. Those who can pack their bags and prepare to leave town. Thousands hurry towards the piers and the railroad stations. Reporter as Walter Cronkite recounted in this 1958 cbs news broadcast, that was just the beginning. After world war ii, polio became an evergreater national threat. Reporter three years the statistics run 50,000 polio cases, 103,000 cases, 122,000 cases. Where will it end . Reporter what were your symptoms . High temperature, pain, headaches, i could not move. I couldnt stand up. Yager was a healthy 14yearold in denver, when she got polio in the summer of 1951. She would spend three months in the hospital before the disease started to retreat as mysteriously as it attacked, like covid19, polio had different effects on different people. It left yager with permanent weakness in her legs. Still. Did you ever stop that think, wow, a lot of kids died from polio . Yes. And that was brought home he ironickly because onme the lungs. Reporter iron lungs were primitive respirators, breathing for patients. Like covid19, which strikes older adults more frequently, polio had a greater impact on a vulnerable age group. One of the things that tugged at the heart strings of everyone is that polio, for some reason, targeted young kids. Reporter Carl Kurlander spent 10 years researching and coproducing a documentary about polio. The fear, my friends, is polio. Reporter he said one pivotal adult was left paralyzed from the waist down franklin d. Roosevelt, who would later become president. When did roosevelt contract the virus . When he was 39 years old. Reporter roosevelt helped launch the organization that came to be called the march of dimes. Dimes pour into the white house to help the fight. Reporter all in an effort to curb his dreaded disease. With polio, there was really no affective treatment, so i it was a sense of helplessness. This is the place, the university of Pittsburgh School of medicine. This is the man, the director of the Virus Research laboratory, dr. Jonas e. Salk. Reporter jonas salk spent six years producing a vaccine. No one knew whether it would be affective, but people were both afraid and believers, they volunteered their school kids to begin pig be guinea pig. Reporter dr. Paul duprex, who holds the jonas salk chair and heads the center for Vaccine Research at the university of pittsburgh, says the march of history gives todays scientists an advantage. We can alter the genetics, the composition of the viruses in ways that dr. Salk could only have dreamed. Reporter jonas salk had competition. Dr. Albert sabin developed an oral vaccine a few years later. And now dr. Duprex is one of scores of researchersaround the world all working towards the same goal. Competition is ont there isich drives another thing we need to be collaborative. That is not just colleagues in the united states, but colleagues all over the world. Reporter the f. D. A. Just approved an emergency treatment for covid19, but the greatest hope is for a vaccine. Duprex and his team are already testing theirs on mice. And elsewhere, human trials have begun, several already showing great promise. Do you feel that the public is really behind scientists in the way they were behind those working with the polio vaccine . I do. It is hard, in the instantaneous world that we live in. Everything needs to be done yesterday. It is hard to be patient. Ady frthink strong scientists, helps the public understand we are doing our best to defeat this virus. Reporter neither jonas salk nor albert sabin and their teams personally profited from their discovers. As salk explained to cbss edward r. Murrow. Who owns the patent on this vaccine . Well, the people, i would say. There is no patent. Could you pass this on . Reporter 65 years later, with polio all by eradicated, it remains to be seen if the creators of a Coronavirus Vaccine will feel the same way. As for 83yearold joanne yager, who still lives with the effects of polio. What lessons do you think we can learn as we study the polio epidemic . That we can be survivors of some of these illnesses, and we can come out as better people. Reporter historian Carl Kurlander. We have to have belief in the scientific community. And mitchell and neil ordinary people, once they came through this disease, they were able to become the best that they can be. I think were at our best the best that they can be.

Were in the checkout line with mo rocca. Reporter it doesnt have its own aisle at the supermarket. Lets make a cake, some cookies, treat yourself. Reporter it is not one of the five basic food groups. I havent bought these in so many years. Everybody is snacking more because everybody is at home and bored. Reporter if it were, right now it would be the most popular. As everybody tries to navigate this pandemic, people reach for some things that really provide some instant comfort. Reporter comfort food, it means Something Different to all of us. I dont want to put you on the spot, but have you got any vienna sausages . Yes. Weve got plenty of them. Reporter jeff is retemple is with portland, oregon, fred meyer food chain. His comfort is spicy and salt ste. Flamin hot funyons, and barbecue is essential for my wife. Reporter prego pasta sauce and campbells and progresso soups have been flying off the shelves. Hi, can i come in . I am chef boyardee. I think my grandfather and my uncle would be estatic. Anna boyardee, grand niece of chef boyardee and her son, jack, are not surprised that sales of the canned pasta jumped 146 compared to this time last year. Do not confuse chef boyardee with spaghettios, which are up 38 . The brand is 92 years old. So it spans a lot of generations. Reporter including the greatest generation. During world war ii, chef boyardee fed u. S. Troops. All of those generations have this really positive, warm connection to the brand. Reporter this isnt the first time that consumers have turned to shelfstable, affordable foods during the time of crisis. During the 2008 recession, sales of koolaid and kraft macaroni and cheese spiked. American cheese melts in a way you know, like the way it melts on top of something . There is nothing else like it. That plasticky quilt, its so good. Reporter food writer, chef, and tv host, sami nostra says it explains why people are turning to them now. Soft foods are comforting. Maybe it reminds you of being a baby. I dont know. Reporter it is interesting you bring up soft, because i have to tell you, i love this. No way reporter but eating processed foods out of plastic tubs doesnt mean comfort for everyone. I see a lot of baking books, the whole world seems to be interested in making bread. Reporter yes, the good, oldfashioned oven is hot once again. One of the greatest things right now that cooking can offer us is a little bit of an escape from our heads and from our worries. Youre forced to smell and see and taste and touch, and that gets you out of your head and into your body, which is so important right now. Reporter you know, it is interesting. It is like youre drawing a distinction there is comfort food and youre talking about comfort cooking. Yeah. And i do think for me, and i hope for other people, that it is also something that we can devisive pleasure from. Reporter there is no recipe for comfort food. It is whatever floats your gravy boat. I actually find vegetables to be really comforting, but laughing , thats not what im hearing that people are being drawn to. Because if there are other hardship and other anxiety, you just want that thing that is going to make you feel like a warm hug. For a lot of people, that is not, like, a spinach salad laughing .

We should mention this, while youre reading daniel silva, people dont remember youre dyslexic. I am very dyslexic. I had a zoom meeting early this morning, and i couldnt figure out i couldnt see what to do. So it just is. Reporter wow, even now, despite all you have overcome . You never get better.
