We need to work for no innoculations

However, I was born at the end of WW2 in Europe , when diseases where

rampant, and I had them all..the measles, the mumps,etc., diphtheria,

that left me close to death and a permanent heart condition.

People here do not remember what it is to have lived through true

pandemics, such as the smallpox that wiped out native Indian Nations or

the special wings of hospitals housing polio victims in iron lungs>

 

We are the same age, and (almost) the same place.

 

I remember measles, mumps, chickenpox and " rode hond "

(red dog) AKA German measles as routine parts of

childhood, though diphtheria was a scourge of the past.

Oh, and whooping cough was not unusual. Kinkhoest.

I'm pretty sure I had it.

 

We did get inoculated against smallpox, and were

regularly checked for TB. Polio was alive and dreaded.

 

My mother was a nurse and a stickler for cleanliness.

She used to regale us with horror stories of typhus

if we dared wade in the delicious water puddles on the

large vacant lot in the neighborhood. Apparently just

getting dirty water over the top of rubber boots was

enough to expose one to mortal danger.

 

Weil's disease threatened anyone daring to swim in

open fresh water. And so on.

 

I am honestly not sure how much good the mass vaccinations

of the past have done, or if all progress is due to

improved hygiene.

 

I do know that we have to be careful to not idealize

the past.

 

AND we have to guard against tyranny in any form.

It doesn't get closer than the right to our own body.

We are causing a new epidemic injecting our children with numerous toxins. What

is better getting a usually mild (in these days) childhood disease that

strengthens their immunity or the new epidemic of life long disabilities and

even death from intentionally injecting our kids with neurotoxins?
