Every single vaccine in the childhood schedule has been subjected to the highest level of scrutiny for any medical product. Because vaccines are given to an otherwise healthy population, safety and effectiveness are essential.

But, But…. Something, something Ivermectin…

While it's not like it would ever happen with the assholes in charge now. The only big issue I have with vaccines is that we haven't thrown money at 100% polio eradication and delivering IPV all around the world so we can finally get rid of OPV.

Such a good point. Global burden of vaccine preventable diseases is such a stain on our humanity. (And it’s just cause of bigotry.)

Mao was a big alternative medicine proponent for his people, not for himself or his family who used Western medicine. Propaganda misled the efficacy of alt medicine, (acupuncture is much cheaper than scans, surgery, chemo, recuperation, etc.) that propaganda was in medical textbooks. Was used here

It would be in a totalitarian gov financial interest to exult the benefits of alt medicine & vaccine denial. They do not want to help people (see Elon Musk re: the “parasite class”, segregation and culling humans as described in his Curtis Yarvin & Nazi & segregationist philosophies. Devastating.)

It’s a “business model” of governing, which profits from segregation and disposal of sick. Extremist groups REQUIRE violence against an out group, Berg, to function. I do not trust that Musk & gov want to help anyone in the out group. The outgroup will shift & are required for ideology to function.

Back to vaccines, seen as an added expense? Magical thinking. Feelings of invincibility. Old Mao propaganda was convincing & cited in literature in natural food stores at least in 2008 (official -but misinfo- gov studies to justify “natural medicine” in medical texts) Russian prop on Fb stoked fear

I followed the anti-vax groups on FB out of curiosity and the articles were INITIALLY accurate, well written and convincing. Pages LONG! Towards end they’d introduce the wacky stuff, and would quote that. Also case studies written like medical journal but heavy on the pathos and low on efficacy.
