    My father nearly died of polio before the shot existed. My mother remembers getting it when she was little. These stupid anti-vax fucks are undoing a ton of work that came before them.

      My aunt had polio also but she survived with a bad limp. We got our polio vaccines when I was a kid, very simple and easy, and nobody was dumb enough to suggest that vaccines were “bad.” We could see the truth - and the importance of being vaccinated. The human race has sure devolved into a morass of ignorance since then.
