To the last known case of naturally-occurring smallpox, which was diagnosed 32 years ago. It took 18 years of vaccinating the world's population to eradicate the disease from the title the proposal to eradicate smallpox was adopted by the World Health Assembly until the disease was eradicated.
When the proposal was adopted, two million people were killed each year from smallpox. Before the first primitive smallpox vaccines were developed, 400,000 Europeans died each year from smallpox. Every seventh child in Russia was killed by smallpox.
Vaccination defeated smallpox. Not homepathy, not pseudo-science cures. If the current anti-vaccination lunatics were around decades ago, there still would be smallpox epidemics, though in a form of brutal justice, they would be restricted to the children of the anti-vaccination morons.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
There is some small hope that over time selection pressure will get rid of the antivaxers though :)
ReplyDeleteNick, I don't think that is true, sadly. The antivaxxers are adults and the odds are that they either matured before the childhood disease vaccines (and had the diseases) or they were vaccinated when they were children.
ReplyDeleteIt is their children who will play the blood price for the antivaxxers' pseudo-scientific arrogance.
