Polio water. When my older sisters were growing up in NYC during the horrifying polio epidemic of the early 1950's they were told to, at all costs, avoid "polio water". My sisters remember having to put their feet in bleach water before getting into a public swimming pool.

After the polio vax was used, it became known that polio was not transmitted by water.
Thanks for this!
