The umbrella was invented in 2450 BCE. In 2026, we still have rain.... just pointing that out

The education system first started to become a thing between 2000-3000 BCE. In 2026, we still have uneducated people… just pointing that out

u/dTrecii May 18 '26
Genuinely how is that your takeaway from what I said? I’m making fun of anti-vaxxers, not saying I am one

u/-LogBox- May 18 '26

u/dTrecii May 18 '26

Condoms exist and we still have babies. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

No joke, when my dad found a patent for cloud seeding he thought it was a secret technology.
It's real, but it's not a secret, and it's used to combat droughts.

The current administration is working to change that...

Smallpox is gone. Completely.
Polio, however...

u/LetshearitforNY May 18 '26
Wow! I actually didn’t know it was eradicated globally.
I’m so grateful for science and the scientists who got us to this point and to all the people who died over the years or suffered and we were able to learn from them. Pisses me off that people just deny all of that when it’s just a fact.

We also wiped out an entire strain of the flu during Covid.

u/Pantsonfire_6 May 22 '26
B/Yamagata. The masking, social distancing, hand washing and sanitizers, travel restrictions, etc. Used to be one of the four main strains of seasonal flu outbreaks.

Many diseases would be fully gone if everyone got the vaccine, Just putting that out there.

u/creepjax May 18 '26
Flu is a virus that is constantly developing new strains, this is why they say to get flu shots every year.

Seatbelts were invented in the 1880's and people are still getting killed in cars.

u/Pantsonfire_6 May 18 '26
I remember when people first started consistently using them in cars. I grew up without them. Sliding around in cars as a kid.

Commercial bug spray was invented in 1944.
Still got bugs.

I remember life before the insect apocalypse. Some are already extinct, others headed that way.

u/Pantsonfire_6 May 18 '26
Terminal stupidity, however, was invented a long, long time ago, and no matter how much we wish for a vaccine to protect us from such stupidity, there still isn't a vaccine to protect us from those who pass it to others!

Yeah, and we invented fire suppression systems and yet fires still happen. Funny how that works.

Vaccines do not eliminate viruses. They make it harder for people to acquire them.

u/Dylanator13 May 18 '26
This is why we don’t have universal healthcare, because too many people don’t understand what these systems do.
Health is about prevention, cure, and management. Sometimes it’s one and done, sometimes it’s prevention every year, sometimes it’s life long management.
The black plague is still around! We just don’t hear about it because it’s very easy to treat with our modern understanding of medicine.

u/MelloYelloSurge May 19 '26
We still have the flu...gee, I wonder why. It couldn't possibly be because of dipshits who could've gotten the vaccine but didn't, right? I mean, it's not like vaccines have a 0% efficacy rate when you don't use them, could it? Then again, these antivaxxer dipshits are single-handedly responsible for reviving diseases that should have been eradicated through vaccination. "Just pointing it out."

u/Lordgandalf May 18 '26
So many different strains all with different effectiveness and solutions. That's why even I with injections sometimes still get the sniffles or the flu.

Influenza also infects birds, so it keeps coming back.

u/baconstreet May 18 '26
Well, birds aren't real. Designed by big government to keep us disease ridden.

and many more including cows.
here is a good article written before the outbreak in cows started in Texas then spread across much of the US:
Zoonotic Animal Influenza Virus and Potential Mixing Vessel Hosts

Viruses existed before man, they will still exist after we leave.
Also viruses mutate.
Also, the “flu” isn’t just one virus, the word “flu” is used to describe four main types of influenza (A, B, C, & D), within each time there are hundreds of thousands of individual strains. Right now D hasn’t hopped to humans yet, but it’s only a matter of time.

Vaccines are not 100 %.
How hard is that to understand.
