Can polio die?

Clinically, polio can lead to death, mainly due to respiratory function damage caused by death factors, but polio disability is more common than death. So more than 90% of patients, brain and spinal cord are not affected, so through treatment, the disease can be cured.

After the occurrence of the disease, clinical infection is the main symptom. The patients will have mild fever, headache, vomiting and other symptoms several days after contacting the pathogen. Although these symptoms are stable, they will recover in a few days. But a few days later, the disease will attack, and more serious than before.
