It was actually hepatitis b vaccines. The hep b vaccine comes in 3 stages. They extracted DNA from a targeted group of children during that process.
Polio vaccines are given orally. So using them to extract DNA wouldn't work.
The reason polio is on the rise is due to the backlash, not the vaccine program itself. The CIA didn't directly deny anyone vaccines. Although yes taking advantage of a medical operation for military means more or less breaks all the rules of war. Pretty inexcusable, but you should get your facts straight.
