What? Are you going to believe your own eyes and experience, or the Government?
What? Even though I was young (maybe seven when we began the iodine) I recall thinking what a stupid thing is was to be given iodine “just because.” Our parents had no choice. They had to allow it.
To this day, I don’t know the reason given to our parents, but I do know we were called out of class and one by one, were given two iodine tablets and offered a paper cup of water to get them down.
Back then, we were also given no choice in innoculations: we were called out of class, lined up, and given a shot until every kid in the school had been vaccinated. Only, my smallpox vaccination didn’t “take.”
It was only years later, when my son was small, that I had another and it put me in bed. No kidding. When I told the doctor about it, he said, “If there is ever a smallpox epidemic, you better plan on leaving town. If you get it, it will kill you.”
My life in a nutshell...if it doesn’t make you stronger, it kills ya! LOL!
