I certainly agree that this would be a disaster. I'm 82 and in my childhood the only vaccine was for smallpox. Measles, both 14-day and 3-day, whooping cough, diptheria, chicken pox, polio--these were lifesaving vaccines that were available after I had all those diseases, including polio. (Polio is caused by the polio virus, and spreads like any other virus--very easily.) I was lucky--I survived and I was not crippled. Others were. Don't let anyone tell you that vaccines are not necessary. And today we have flu, RSV, and other vaccines I don't even know about. Lifesaving vaccines that save lives.
