@iiradned Context for those who didn't know:

the first vaccinations were small amounts of "live*" virus--from failing memory, it started in the middle east, inocculating with small amounts of virus from a pox postule. Also it was noticed in the west that exposure to cow pox protected people from deadly smallpox.

When vaccines became so good that many diseases were no longer scary, idiots pretended that we don't need vaccines.

• I'd argue that viruses are not alive, even when they are spreading

what if we did that, and - hear me out - we called them inoculations?
