I think he means smallpox. We haven’t eradicated polio and it still exists in some parts of the world.
buttplugconsumer
It's been required for over a century in some States.
sleepinggreenidea
Latest response I heard to this is "I'm not against vaccines THAT WORK" - as if other vax breakthroughs aren't avoided by herd immunity...
totallynotawerewolf
Fuckin for real. I have to have vaccinations to travel?! Like yeah u always have none of this is new at all
justamanwhoknowshowtofeel
*begins explaining something stupid* “wait wait my wife actually just convinced me that’s stupid” lol I love this format
TexMexHex
Fake. Most people.
swatz
I was going to say, we have always had to show vaccination records for public school. Though there are ways around it.
LaughingCoast
Remember when they were called "immunization records" and nobody was pissed off about that?
RNHurt
YES! That's the solution! We should just start calling them "immunization records"; maybe that won't trigger some uninformed folks.
SanjiO
Yeah I remember taking them and not having to worry about still wearing masks and still getting infected
Calicoastin818
I don’t think the spreadnecks passed high school at all how do we have so many idiots??
Tjitso
It's not required to vaccinate your kids in the Netherlands in order to go to school (yet) but most everyone does it anyway.
ghostboy1225
however currently covid shots only reduce how bad it is when you get infected. however you still have the same amount of transmission.
ghostboy1225
unlike polio who you where 99% of the time safe from after vacc. covid is a variant of the common cold and there's nothing to be done sadly.
sleepinggreenidea
Except no, Covid shots prevent infection in most cases. Breakthroughs occur & vaxed transmission can occur, but it doesn't only mitigate.
engineeringwombocombo
Eradicated. Think about that word. We all collectively said "no" and ended it. My god. Imagine.
vicsan2000
I honestly never knew it was called a vaccine passport.
djangojazz
I just was sent something in the mail about a car passport needing to be renewed!
SanjiO
Your privilege is showing, a lot of poc dont have ID
djangojazz
True, and I apologize. But it's about the overall ridiculousness of thinking safety requirements are somehow robbing people.
eratosthenesearth
There are no records of my vaccinations. Does that mean I can't go to kindergarten?
buttcreambandit
Polio isn’t technically eradicated. It’s still around, cases upticked cause of antivaxxers and the internet for the first time in decades
buttcreambandit
But since everyone (most everyone)is vaccinated for it in the us it is largely non existent. We stop vaccinating Itl come right back
Ballztick
The list is long if you look up your immunization records.... vaccines have been around a long fucking time.. wake up fukkrrs
IsolatedAsshole
I had to get three shots and a TB test before starting college. Just suck it up and take your medicine.
twRkv
Kindergartners can’t get the COVID vaccine just yet so this makes no sense.
emperorche
scrolled down for this.
jkoppee
Nobody said anything about a covid vaccine. Vaccines have been required to attend schools for a LONG time.
beyourselfandnothingelse
I had to get the MMR vaccine to play sports in middle school… providing your records of your vaccine is nothing new. People need to grow up
Calicoastin818
they’re uneducated and don’t wanna learn they fear knowledge and intelligence

Polio is not a respiratory virus. You cannot cure covid or other respiratory viruses with a vaccine.
RickRolledLexLuthor
What the fuck are you talking about? https://www.lung.org/lung-health-diseases/wellness/vaccines
Toomanytimes
Diseases caused by bacteria are different than ones caused by viruses. That's what I'm talking about.
THISISYELLING
Poliovirus, big brain. It is not a bacteria. Vaccines are also not cures. Please go back to eating crayons in the corner.
Toomanytimes
Did you not read what I wrote? You cannot cure respiratory viruses with a vaccine. Polio is not a respiratory virus.
NotWelcomehere
You don't need to "cure" a virus with a vaccine, the vaccine is a prophylactic AGAINST catching it and having it propagate inside you!
Attaroo
Polio, tetanus, smallpox, influenza, rubella, hib, measles, whooping cough, rotavirus, mumps, chickenpox, diptheria, hepatitis A and B...
MoreCatnipPleaseSir
Amd meningitis. Had to get that one before I started college years ago.
Ijustwantquiet
Wait...what about distemper and wrong species.

We didn't start the fire! It was always burning, since the world's been turning!
rudejohn
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but most of those are not eradicated.
muddiekins
My friend, a teacher, missed my wedding because unvaccinated kids at her school gave her whooping cough
Ruthknits3
If you’ve ever seen a baby with whooping cough…. Terrifying. Can’t imagine voluntarily subjecting my child to that.

Also, strangers please stop trying to touch my baby.
Exyr
Yeah its kinda funny that people forget that you have to vaccination records to go to school. Even college. Kinda why homeschooling 1/2
SerialChickenLover
People didn’t forget. Anti-vaxxers are using COVID to purposely push for an end to completely normal and sane vaccination requirements. /
SerialChickenLover
/ Before COVID, they were a growing but still fringe group of irresponsible parents, but now they have more power than ever and are using it
wisher1977
VodkaReindeer
It IS funny that you guys don't have such good healthcare for kids that you'd know enough of them are vaccinated without proof!
JeraldJohnson1
"You'd know enough are vaccinated without proof" what?
VodkaReindeer
What? Universal Heathcare allows you to know these things without asking someone for a piece of paper.
BurtTyrannosaurusMacklinFBl
Not really? They don't tell you if someone elected not to get vaccinated all the same. I like single payer but bad argument
VodkaReindeer
You know the percentage and you know what's needed for herd immunity. You don't need to know if child x was vaccinated.
Exyr
Became a thing well that and evolution isn't real and we don't want are kid exposed to that nonsense, but aren't those really two sides 2/3
yeahhedugit
Evolution is real?
Rikimarudevil
Dude...read your stuff before you hit post. You can't even use the right words. "We dont want are kid"?
kennelbreach
Your next most recent comment on a different post begins, "All the comments loom the same here." Don't be a cunt.
Rikimarudevil
Yep. Which is why I told him. I didnt read it and looked like a dummy.
AHussarsLance
Well, props for owning it
NotWelcomehere
Maybe, instead of doing that you could just be more understanding?
SeeMyVests
and now you look like a jerk.
SalmonTheWise
Homeschooling, innit?
Exyr
Of the same coin. Anyway get vaxxed. Evolution is real. The earth is round.

I was homeschooled from first to eighth grade

dontsaymyusername
Was homeschooled, can confirm.
MELLANcolly
I'm honestly thinking about homeschooling ours. Not bc of religion, but bc our school system is trash and whitewashing everything
Exyr
Thats fair. I live in a progressive area so that has never been a problem for me or my partners children.
ItsBobBelcher
Nothings stopping ppl from using resources like the discovery techbook for science and other topics. Just make sure thekids have a community
LateNightBunnyParty
Oddly, some of us homeschool to get our kids AWAY from the religious nutjobs.
RigoryMorty
There are religious nutjobs at school...?
Perfectlynormalhumanbieng
Wrong, the earth is a giant turtle buddy. Read a book sometime
HisDudness
What? Mate, no. The world is a flat disk that is on the back of a giant space turtle.
snurx
There are other reasons to homeschool aside from religious ones. Too often, the public school system lets kids down. And they're underfunded
LordPaimon
And you think you can do better?! Maybe elementary and some of middle school but that’s it. Plus school is so much more than learning…
LordPaimon
… facts etc. it’s about growing as a person. It’s about making friends, having a crush etc. and yes sometimes it sucks but looking back…
LordPaimon
It’s still probably the best time of your life.
