    Hellloooooo Polio! And Tetanus. And Measles. And Diphtheria. And Rubella.

    Rubella wins a prize for being dangerous to pregnant women and their unborn babies.

    Tetanus is fun. It doesn’t live on the proverbial nail, a nail is simply a great way to effectively introduce Tetanus to a body. Tetanus is found in soil, dust, some feces, like goats and sheep. It’s why whenever you break the skin in any injury the doctor or nurse asks if you’re up on your tetanus: there’s risk whenever you break the skin. Kids are more susceptible because they’ll scrape their knees in the dirt and keep right on going.

    I personally love vaccines because they’re the laziest and thus most effective health care. Most people would prefer a free one time pill to make it better so they don’t have to think on it again. This is the closest thing to that scenario.

    Aren’t the military provided mandatory vaccine when they join? Let’s see how long until they change that.

      I guarantee anyone concerned about conflict with the US military will be ensuring proper funding for their bio weapons development.

    Any country that abandon vaccination and get riddled with epidemy deserves to be subjet of travel restriction from the rest of the world.
