This shows how short the collective public memory is. There are still people alive today who had polio. I knew an elderly gentlemen who's face was half paralyzed from having it as a child. Vaccines have increased lifespans and improved the quality of life for humans around the world. Advancements which are now in jeopardy because people lack critical thinking skills and are highly susceptible to bullshit propaganda.

They are dumb everywhere on the planet. Just brought up differently and under the influence of more of less "evil" campaigns. Education is everything.

Yes, but how do we know this highly effective vaccine we’ve been taking for 80 years coinciding with the largest lifespan increases in history is really safe? Couldn’t there be microchips in there?
