This is not the case for things like polio. Plus based on Israel, the vaccine is also losing efficacy after 3-6 months so they are giving a 3rd shot now. That's not the case with polio vaccines.

After the panic dies down, these got shelved, but they served as a starting point. We've been developing this vaccine on-and-off-again for the past 20 years.
