Just goes to show pre-meditated intent/foreknowledge of the coming pandemic.

What Vaccine was being resisted in 2019, the flu vaccine?

California has a big problem with lefties being anti-vaccine. They have had big Mumps outbreaks in recent years. I should note, I am completely for people being allowed to refuse these vaccines. I'm not anti-vaccine, I stay up to date on a number of vaccines (polio, MMR, tetanus) but I don't touch things that haven't had a very long track record of success (flu, chicken pox, covid).

I had shingles at age 30, on the younger side for that particular ailment. They say it gets worse the older you are and I can't even imagine because they suck, bad. I don't know when they actually started vaccinating for chicken pox because I got it the old fashioned way in the early 90's from a pox party my friend's mom threw.

Go figure, intentionally getting a disease when you are less susceptible to the worse effects in order to get immunity and prevent a worse outbreak? But I digress...

I can enthusiastically support MMR/Chicken Pox/etc vax. We got rid of these things for a reason.
