Its first rigorous descriptions date back to the 18th century, such as that of the British physician <strong>Michael Underwood<\/strong> in 1789. In the 19th century, <strong>Jakob von Heine<\/strong> proposed its contagious nature, and in 1908 <strong>Karl Landsteiner<\/strong> and <strong>Erwin Popper<\/strong> demonstrated its viral origin through experiments with monkeys. In 1931, <strong>Macfarlane Burnet<\/strong> and <strong>Jean Macnamara<\/strong> identified three serotypes of the virus, a fundamental discovery for later vaccines. This was the great turning point, and in 1954 <strong>Jonas Salk<\/strong> introduced the inactivated vaccine, which, thanks to the campaign promoted by the President of the United States himself, <strong>Franklin Roosevelt<\/strong>, a victim of the disease, drastically reduced the number of cases. In 1963, <strong>Albert Sabin<\/strong> developed the oral vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>Bosch recalled his own childhood, when at the <strong>Hospital Sant Joan de D\u00e9u<\/strong> in Esplugues de Llobregat he saw children confined in iron lungs. He also mentioned his research career, including the detection in September 2024 of a poliovirus in wastewater from the Bes\u00f2s area in the Barcelona metropolitan region, which shows that the virus can still circulate in urban environments. In his historical review, the academician focused on the initiative launched by the World Health Organization in 1988 to eradicate poliomyelitis. The results, he stressed, have been impressive: from some 350,000 annual cases in more than 125 countries in 1988, the figure fell to fewer than 2,000 in the early 2000s. However, global eradication is still pending. Endemic foci persist in Afghanistan and Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cMore than seven decades after the first vaccines, poliomyelitis remains a reminder that great victories in public health require perseverance, international cooperation and never lowering one\u2019s guard,\u201d<\/strong> he stated. As Bosch illustrated with the image of <strong>Frida Kahlo<\/strong>, who suffered from the disease, its after-effects are profound, but humanity has the tools to bring it to a definitive end. The goal of total eradication is achievable, but it requires continuous surveillance. The new academician thanked his collaborators in the Enteric Virus Group for their support and stressed that science is never an individual task. The response address was given by academician <strong>Tom\u00e0s Pumarola<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-187078\" src=\"https:\/\/raed.academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vacuna-contra-la-poliomielitis-enfermedad-salud-medica-shutt-1.67.webp\" sizes=\"(max-width: 641px) 100vw, 641px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/raed.academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vacuna-contra-la-poliomielitis-enfermedad-salud-medica-shutt-1.67.webp 800w, https:\/\/raed.academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vacuna-contra-la-poliomielitis-enfermedad-salud-medica-shutt-1.67-768x461.webp 768w, https:\/\/raed.academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vacuna-contra-la-poliomielitis-enfermedad-salud-medica-shutt-1.67-627x376.webp 627w, https:\/\/raed.academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vacuna-contra-la-poliomielitis-enfermedad-salud-medica-shutt-1.67-440x264.webp 440w\" alt=\"\" width=\"641\" height=\"385\" \/>Bosch has carried out research at foreign institutions such as the <strong>Albert Einstein College of Medicine<\/strong> in New York, the <strong>University of North Carolina<\/strong>, the <strong>University of Arizona<\/strong>, the <strong>University of Pretoria<\/strong> and the <strong>Institute of Child Health<\/strong> in London.
