Last week we visit the laboratory of Jonas Salk and this week we are in Toronto, Canada’s largest city. When we think of Toronto we think of the CN Tower, the Hockey Hall of Fame and maybe the University of Toronto. Students attend from 159 countries with a total of 15,600 full time students. It was at this University that our story begins in the early 50’s. Dr. Leone Farrell worked tirelessly to develop the ‘rocking’ cell cultures for developing bulk production of toxin in a liquid medium. This adapted to the “rocking” method & developed into what is know as the TORONTO METHOD. This enabled mass production of the polio vaccine! It was her research that pushed polio vaccine production to meet the needs of the world. More information on Dr Farrell can be found at the Museum of Health Care. We may want to attend a Rotary meeting in District 7070, the home of 5 Rotary International Conventions. There are approximately 300 Rotary clubs in Canada with 55 clubs in this district. Rotary
