Yes Soroush – when I got Polio in the 1958 epidemic and was in hospital for a month lying on my back and told not to move but no treatment other than physiotherapy, the week before my sister had a 24 hour bad fever which passed. My mother always said that was Polio and I caught it from my sister. We were not vaccinated and my polioi was very mild and left me with few lasting effects. I think those who were vaccinated were the ones who ended up in the leg irons etc.

Even polio can appear as cold/flu symptoms and pass.
Unfortunately in the susceptible it has devastating effects.
The vaccine still causes more polio cases – try telling that to Bill Gates!

Rochelle,
You don't know if your son never had the mumps. The mumps may appear as a simple cold. That's why we don't necessarily know what we had. An adult with a cold, could be carrying something like the mumps and give it to someone. Natural events should be greeted with gratitude. Were that we all lived in such communities.

I managed to get mine chicken pox; preferred planning it for a less-inconvenient time, vs. having it come up e.g. as we were preparing a vacation etc. But for measles, we weren’t able to find a case anywhere! This was 20+ years ago.
