    At one time 97% of scientists thought diseases could be cured by bleeding.

      Against my advice, Bacon cleaned up MA’s rants, but he left the one where he insults the article’s author. Go figure!

      So much anger.

    Washington’s death in 1799 saw the end of phlebotomy in America. It was seen as ‘quackery’ afterwards. George was a believer in bloodletting. He claimed it had cured him many times in the past.

      Good thing he didn’t get Covid. But he also created the country’s first vaccine mandate.

        Smallpox is a little more contagious and deadly than Covid. His mandate only applied to soldiers under his direct command.

          more than smallpox:

          These are the mandatory vaccinations that all service members are required to receive before initial entry or basic training:

          Adenovirus
          Hepatitis A
          Hepatitis B
          Influenza
          Measles, mumps, rubella
          Meningococcal
          Poliovirus
          Tetanus-Diphtheria
          Varicella

          Other vaccines administered depending on risk and occupation:

          Anthrax
          Haemophilus influenzae type B
          Japanese encephalitis
          Pneumococcal
          Rabies
          Smallpox
          Typhoid fever
          Yellow fever

          It’s hard to believe after enlisting and getting all these vaccines , that the same service members would then refuse COVID and why?

            You can’t conflate requirements imposed on military service members and citizens. They sign a contract where they basically waive a lot of their freedoms away.

            Also, the anthrax vax used during the middle east debacle caused a lot of documented harm.

            There are also non-military occupations that require specified vaccines, no?

    For the record, I consider the COVID-19 vaccine to be a miracle of modern medicine. But the meme is hilarious.

    And the runner-up is…

      But in Virginia, they are required to ride in the cab of the pickup. People are not.

    Given the way the GOP eschews science, this was completely predictable.
