I hope some day we can invent some sort of treatment that could prevent kids from ever getting this disease.
My greatest fear is that we will never find the cure for being an idiot. I know for some people that the disease is fatal.
Luckily for you we'll soon be able to test your fear "Trump’s education secretary may be asked to dismantle the Education Department. Here’s what it does" https://apnews.com/article/education-department-trump-linda-mcmahon-9fc4fcef00e11b842063235798119cfc AP February 2025
Like why don't they just make something that makes the disease not hurt us and then put it in our bodies... Why do they have to have all this lab processed shit that they don't actually know what it does and try to put it in our bodies...
You know what's interesting is that the first real anti-vaxxers started because old vaccines would use pus from an infected cow. Something about it being unholy worship of cow or some nonsense.
Now the anti-vaxx crowd is all crying about synthetics... Can't make anyone happy.
The truly OG anti-vaxxers had some among them that thought it was against their god's will to combat disease, if you can fucking believe it (people are stupid and horrible, it turns out):

I just don't understand how such a "god" could be worthy of worship, then. Imagine losing 9 children before they reached adulthood. I'd flip this "god" of theirs the bird, and try the cure, thankyouveryfuckingmuch.
Well puss is gross man...
I had this idea, like what if we used our own cells to make some of the identifying surface proteins of viruses and stuff, and use that to train our immune system on what to look for. We wouldn't even need to cultivate the pathogen itself at all.
Your using big words... You must be one of them folks we have to stab with our pitchforks... Get the hell out of here
Anti-vax adults should not have children.
