Despite the fact that it was not widely disseminated in the US, possibly because of the dangers associated with its use, OPV is the vaccine of choice in countries like Pakistan

But there is a problem with that claim. OPV has been used in North America, and around the world, since 1962. Here is a reference for you: Salk and Sabin: poliomyelitis immunisation -- Pearce 75 (11): 1552 -- Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry
So, the natural health news website you quote, the one run out of Taiwan and published by a group called "Truth Publishing", seems not to be able to look up basic facts. Now, I know nothing about Truth Publishing, but based on how easy it was to determine that they made some pretty basic mistakes, their credibility is shot, at least to me.
This is all apart from the fact that their article, as MD points out, doesn't show causality. It just tries to suggest it by sensationalizing the story, thus tricking readers who may not be able to separate fact from fiction. Apparently that strategy is working.
