Joe Rogan isn’t qualified to have an opinion. Dude what is it do you simply enjoy chaos? Are you trying to hurt people? I’m guessing it’s a different type of fear factor.
Maga like Rogan, Musk, Trump( rx grade) rfk jr, all abuse drugs , they are not doctors, scientist or anyone that took science courses. Kids are now having liver toxicity and damage from the vit A overuse as directed by Rfk Jr.
Oh I don’t know about that, they are unlikely to have met someone who had Polio but I wouldn’t say never, I’m a millennial and I knew someone who had Polio
Anyone else want popcorn while maga self culls? I’m thinking we continue to allow them to stay unvaccinated, kill their rural healthcare, and stop birth control. They’ll go extinct from curable STDs (because they love cheating) and/or water born viruses.
Hey maybe they can bleach their way out.
Ivermection*. Because there is no such thing as bacterial or viral infection and all diseases are caused by parasites, therefore curable with horse paste. And don't pay extra for the human kind! Get it dirt cheap at your local feed store.
Guess what, neighbor? Viruses don’t recognize borders. When it spreads up your way — and it will, because you have plenty of anti-vax morons, too — will you still be so smug?
I think maybe Canada should divide the US into Territories. Since we’re talking about annexation. We won’t give you full rights or benefits, but you’ll have the honour of being Canadian.
You are right. Viruses don't recognise borders. I'm wondering when we start getting more out breaks of Avian flu as the wild birds start there migration back to 🇨🇦. Mask up people and don't handle any dead birds. Call the Canadian Wildlife Health co-op.
Oh my gosh, I lived through that polio epidemic. We weren’t allowed to go to the swimming pools or the movies. My parents took us out of the city and camped in the countryside.
All those kids in iron lungs. It was scary and horrible. It was a big deal.
Yep, it's also the herd immunity - protecting those who can't have the vaccine due to health issues. I struggle to care now if these asshats kill themselves, but they're putting innocents at risk. I bet they're already vaccinated, it's the lives of their kids & others that they're prepared to risk.
No, as long as you have high proportion being vaccinated, it will work with immediate effect. With especially contagious diseases, they recommend 19 in 20 people having vaccine.
Herd immunity does work for polio and measles, measles is making a come back because of the reduction (1/2)
(2/2) in vaccinations - it's not a guarantee, you have to keep it up. You're thinking of true eradication, that can take much longer. It does work for Covid but as it changes, you have to constantly keep up with the vaccines. We've built up natural immunity to the effects now so its not so high risk
P.S I had measles, this was 50 years ago. Due to a family reaction (older vaccines had more side effects), Docs advised I didn't have the vaccine. Caught measles & very nearly died. I still have long term affects today. I only hope I don't get SSPE. Vaccinate your kids 👌
Many won't take it seriously. Years have been spent programming them not to believe their eyes or their ears so people dying from Polio will not be able to crack the veneer of their denial. Plus they have this live free or die, we are revolutionaries, individualistic mindset.
Had the sugar cube in 1967ish.
They “died of polio” was heard many times in the East-end of London. My mum had us vaccinated as soon as the dr said it was okay.
I remember I child on my block in one of those incasements. I also went out with a guy in college. He wore braces on his legs and used crutches.He walked with great difficulty😞
We still don't have a singular media personality who can take Rogan on. MeidasTouch comes close. But Rogan's sphere of influence among young men is massive. I don't know how we can compete with that without people rising up & building media platforms to tackle Rogan one-on-one.
Why are men in particular so stupid? It's almost like the women who have been face palming this shit since the beginning of time are correct... and the men who claim women are too emotional and don't think logically are projecting.
Get meaningful participation from Stewart, Colbert, Oliver, etc. AOC, Crockett, Murphy, Ossoff, Casar, Wyden... Hayes, Maddow. MeidasTouch. There are others out, including young ones not coming to mind. Need young voices. Non-stop battery.
Last I checked Joe Rogan doesn’t have a medical degree. I believe he just hosts stuff for a living. I am not saying he isn’t smart BUT he doesn’t have a medical degree so maybe we shouldn’t listen to him on this subject. Just saying!
Saskatchewan had their share of ppl who spent time in iron lungs to survive - others who survived and then couldn't walk the rest of their lives. Had to be pulled around town on a sled in the winter, zero sports.
Maybe the anti-vaxers shld be looking up what life is like after polio - if you survive
These people are the reason there are warning labels on toaster recommending not to bathe with them. Seriously, you can teach them nothing. They’ll FAFO.
I just. don't. get. it.
Here in Cda, I've not seen anywhere that vax isn't free - other than here on the prairies where the shingles shots are a 2x$150 cost.
WHY not take advantage of a pin prick 'free' shot that's repeatedly saved ppl fr ICUs/ERs?
Vs 'someone on the internet said they're scary'?🤷
It's true. I used to know a measles vaccine denier who didn't believe kids in other countries were dying from the disease. No amount of proof could convince her. She truly believed she was saving children.
No, just those who aren’t vaccinated. Now we may have to cross borders for it but those of us that believe in science won’t let idiots demand we die, we have a choice. Darwinism is coming it appears. Make your own safe choices now because no one is looking out for you anymore. We are on our own.
Polio “vaccines” are cherry oral drops. Yo give to the infant after the DPT vaccine because they might do a baby cry , then are amazed they got a cherry flavor in their mouths.
Worked well baby clinic for years, unlike Joe Rogan who if he even has a kids ever took his child in for shots.
Right? My uncle got it as a young child in the 1950s and became disabled requiring leg braces for the remainder of his life. It's nothing to be cavalier about.
Before vaccines, polio paralyzed over 15k Americans and 350k people worldwide a year. By 2021, it was nearly eradicated, just 6 cases globally. Now, ignorance and conspiracy dress as skepticism, poisoning trust in science. Hard won progress teeters, undone by delusion, misinformation, and cynicism.
And Joe believed that?
Well, I'm sure his parents were responsible enough to vaccinate him and, like every other Maga, as long as his ass is covered nothing else matters.
Polio was a huge threat. It isn't a big deal now, precisely because of vaccines. "At its peak in the 1940s and 1950s, polio would paralyse or kill over half a million people worldwide every year." The insanity continues.
If these diseases weren’t spread so rapidly in public spaces, we could console ourselves with survival of the fittest quips. But the fact that these morons are being encouraged by the current idiotic admin to endanger all of us is scary. And people will suffer and die, regardless of political party.
You know what.
Just let them.
Let natural selection sort them out.
Honestly, if people are going to just reject science and medicine, then they deserve no sympathy for the consequences of their choices.
Pre-vaccine stories:
My aunt got it as a teenager, spent the rest of her (relatively short) life in a wheelchair.
My uncle got it while recovering from WW2 wounds. Spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair!
MAGA's ignorance makes me sick!
I hear ya! My bro contracted polio in 1954 shortly before the Salk vaccine was released. He's in a power chair and has the use of one arm. No working legs. Bet Rogan couldn't last more than a day.
HHS said it will consolidate from 28 to 15 divisions, including a new Administration for a Healthy America, and will reduce regional offices from 10 to five.
I was born in the 40s. In my childhood, adults in wheelchairs, relatives in iron lungs, classmates with leg braces, none of that merited a 2nd glance. Fucking idiots are willing to bring that back? And the payoff is... clicks?
I am of that generation that first received the polio vaccine. I still remember seeing older children in callipers in the street and films of people in iron lungs. May the people who call into question this vaccine rot In hell forever.
Guaranteed some billionaire somewhere is already making big plans to start manufacturing iron lungs again. Just have to convince Trump he can profit if he pulls the tarriffs on metal imports. 🙄
Yes. They were having difficulty replacing parts because no one makes iron lungs any more. You know, these anti everything people deserve to be the first ones to get the next big pandemic. As to polio, it will come back with a vengeance.
Unfortunately, we have to cut off concern for those kids. Nothing we can do to change it, and until vaccines are compulsory (which will never happen) people are going to make stupid choices for their kids.
The best we can hope for is that they survive to become a ward of the state.
The minute I cut off concern for any or am not horrified by any of the atrocities and crimes against humanity will be my last minute. We MUST fight.whatever is in our capacity, making calls, marching, get involved!!
I can't fight all the battles. I'm spread thin and ineffective if I try. I can't fight this battle - there is no battle. This is the unwinnable war-I can't compel people to give up their bodily autonomy, nor should I try -
Honestly? Most people who get this bad will just die. The rich will get the best equipment. The middle class will drive themselves into debt to pay for it. And the poor will just die.
Block all these people at the hospital doors. Do not let them in. MAKE them live their beliefs. They're using their foghorn to cause pain to others, they need to feel it too.
And people slammed Kamala for not giving this schmuck Rogan three hours of her time plus a full day’s flying time to Texas since he refused to travel for her in the middle of her abbreviated campaign? Really?
Yeah they did reach to him to plan something. He said the time they wanted was his day off that so it’d have to be a later time. Turns out that day was the day he talked to Trump. They dragged their feet to make to look like she wasn’t interested in talking to him
True enough, however when people take Rogan’s advice and fail to get their children vaccinated for polio or any other highly infectious disease, it lowers herd immunity rates and puts many people at risk- not just their kids. Rogan and his spawn, if he has them, are likely vaccinated. He is scum.
Perhaps consider sharing this with Mr. Rogan if you know how to reach him. Guessing he's just not yet well informed on the topic? [benefit of the doubt?]
He knows. And he knows what he's doing: Anti-science packaged as "rational skepticism" and "debate" is what his younger male audience wants to hear, it gets the *likes* he wants.
I don’t think pics from the black and white camera era can do anything to convince these dumbasses, were so spoiled by being so far removed from these tragedies nowadays that’s why I also believe holocaust denial will become more nonchalant as the last victims pass away
He wouldn't read it, after all, his guest spreading misinformation "is a doctor and nephrologist" and therefore an all knowing infallible expert, according to folks who follow him. Sad
Selective hearing: An all-knowing infallible "expert" who tells them what they want to hear. Many other experts will present the opposite - in fact, many MORE experts - but in that case, they don't need the "experts" and aren't listening
Let this risk for “them” continue! I’m getting to the point I believe that nature and natural selection needs to intervene here apparently. If they refuse facts, refute science and medicine? Suffer personal consequences! This ignorance is getting absolutely absurd!!
I know 🤬 & I personally fought and worked very hard during the campaign to prevent this. It is gut wrenching! & it was during the pandemic for me as well as they refused masks for their children!
My boomer father survived polio, barely. And had lasting effects. I lost him at a young 56. 🧵
🧵 So this is deeply personal to me. I’m an LVT. So I’m an advocate and promote animal vaccinations and am a civil servant for veterinary & zoonotic medicine in my community.
I just simply don’t see another way around it now. 🤷🏻♀️ 😢
Because that dumb ass was NOT alive when polio was killing millions. It's been eradicated, by the very vaccines that this dumb ass is denigrating. Some people are simply too stupid to understand.
Wild polio is still in 3rd world countries and can still travel in a person on a plane and infect anyone who is not vaccinated.
Case in point: Measles.
May not be a concern of Joe, but it sure would be a different story if he or someone he loves got polio. He would be shouting from the rooftops about what a terrible decision it was to stop all polio vaccinations! They would probably blame Biden, Obama, and Clinton, as usual.
Once saw my dad watching a JRE clip where some stupid asshole was saying there was a ritual where people give Baphomet a rimjob or some shit and that's where trans people come from
I immediately started pointing out the near countless points of nonsense and he just shut it off lmao
If only little, and I mean little, Joe Rogan got polio. It would be delicious. If all his Incels listen to him, the country will have a plethora of morons in leg braces.
Polio killed large numbers of people and was seriously feared until a vaccine was developed. I lived during those years and knew of the people in iron lungs.
Have Mitch McConnell call in to Rogan’s show and tell Joey how stupid and dangerous he is sounding right now. RFK Jr just decimated the FDA and CDC again so we won’t get any truthful stats anyway if polio cases kick in again.
Omg, somebody please share the pictures of children in Iron lungs and all the children who had to wear braces and permanent crutches with these idiots. This is some bullshit.
My guess is none of these dudes were alive in the 50's when we were scared shitless about getting polio. Our moms warned us ever day about "polio water" (any stagnant H2O) or sharing food about our friends.
Knew a few folks who got that terrible disease, glad Salk figured it out.
When I was a kid in the 50's used to go to lunch with friends mom who was a nurse at the hospital.
Entered through the basement where they stored the extra iron lungs, they scared the shit out of us.. huge, butt ugly and most were tan and brown..
I agree so many currently are down playing vaccines, I still know some kid who were afflicted with polio and continue their lives difficulty.
My father's sister had polio and died very young.. we were all scared shitless, thank goodness for Jonas Salk..
Please research President Franklin D. Roosevelt to understand the importance of the Polio vaccine and the dangers of Polio without it. Thank you from We the People.
It's almost like they want big pharma to make even more money! So now we have a polio out break big pharmacy is going to be selling the drug and make bigger money !
Isn't that the goal with all of this ? Privatize everything so the rich get richer. Care and medicine costs more and the quality sucks. Corporate America at it's finest.
I'm old enough to have had friends with it. Paralysis, stunted leg growth, years of physical therapy. And, they were the lucky ones. Parents dreaded this disease, and were thrilled once the vaccine was introduced.
It’s almost amusing how all of these podcasters who rose to fame telling us that globalist elites were trying to “depopulate the Earth and turn us into slaves” took a big payday from the Right wing - and now are advocating for things that will depopulate the Earth and make us all slaves…
Sure... if you think surviving is ok as long as you spend your life disabled or in an iron lung.
Ironically, wanna know the name of a disease with a higher mortality IFR than Polio?
These people are so stupid and the people listening to them are even more dumb. You’re right we are all going to die. 10 years tops, watch the world population collapse
Oh, that’s sad. I wasn’t sure of the current status of him but thank you. My main point was to show how deadly polio was and or how debilitating to one’s life. I went to school with a girl who had polio contracted in an African country. Her father was a British diplomat, was left with leg braces
I guarantee that he's vaccinated. Why not spread disinformation on a deadly disease that you never had or will never get. That's what these complete morons do.
Yup all the parents are vaccinated, but they'll happily kill their children and (like the measles parent) insist it was the right thing to do, if it supports their cult beliefs
Why the fuck do we still care about Rogan. Folks- grab these ignorant young men following him and teach them straight. Stop this clutch the pearls shit.
I vote for Joe to go first. Am I wrong to hope he gets an incurable illness that could've been prevented with a vaccine? I don't think I am, because he has the resources to know better, while he holds sway over those too gullible or downright stupid to make informed decisions on their own.
As befits the asylum they've built for themselves. There are no rules. Nobody can be held responsible for anything. Only the rich get money. Everybody getting money who isn't rich is a fraudster. Batcrap lunacy.
Joe Rogan is really popular among young males that love to say, Yeah he's right! That sucks! without knowledge of why or how, just ignorantly nodding and willing to fight anyone that points out the flaws of the idea.

Iron lungs are definitely in the no fun zone.
I'm not okay with that.
Hey maybe they can bleach their way out.
According to current Qultist "thought" anyway.
Like Dan Rather’s old CBS news followed by 1 hour of educational discussions on protection of civil liberties and science-based health care
I first thought Jen Psaki’s podcast might do it but she is not inquisitive enough
Besides, I wouldn’t be so sure. Here’s the voting totals for our last election. Compare the percentages, isn’t Polievre polling at about 37%?
All those kids in iron lungs. It was scary and horrible. It was a big deal.
A few people who lose their children to polio or are stricken with lifelong deformities will realize they were duped by idiots. FAFO.
Maybe if fools like this had seen a childhood friend in an iron lung before dying at the age of 10, they'd take it seriously.
I have no interest in their well-being, but there is a danger that they'll influence others.
Herd immunity does work for polio and measles, measles is making a come back because of the reduction (1/2)
They “died of polio” was heard many times in the East-end of London. My mum had us vaccinated as soon as the dr said it was okay.
Canadian singer Joni Mitchell was a polio survivor. She had to learn to walk again after her case of polio.

It tracks exactly with their pro-corruption character.

Polio isn't a big deal because we had the vaccine!
Without the vaccine, however....
Whatever rogan and his clowns say will be even stupider than this.
