I don't think JFK Jr made that chart. It's scary that he will have that new CDC position under Trump. How weird can thing get???

Many of these diseases result in chronic health issues as well. I don't think enough people understand the possible life long ramifications of getting infected by these viruses.

We should buy billboards with this on them, so ppl in a different media bubble will see this information.

Many physicians just a decade older than me talk
about how terrible HIB meningitis was. I’ve been practicing for 20 years now and have never seen a case. Vaccines work.

Great tabulation. Makes me think (Edward) Jenner Day should be a global celebration of vaccine discovery - https://www.sgul.ac.uk/about/our-institutes/infection-and-immunity/events/jenner-day
