News: Man who helped create polio vaccine dies
Posted in Hot off the wire with tags polio, vaccines on August 25, 2008 by Billy DennisBefore doctors Jonas Salk and Albert Sabin developed the vaccines that have no doubt prevented millions and millions of people from getting polio, there was Dr. Thomas H. Weller. He and two other researchers shared the 1954 Nobel Prize in medicine for the breakthrough that led to the polio vaccine.
He died Saturday at age 93.
Kudos.
