If someone has to try and educate @maddow’s “award winning” producer on natural immunity from prior infection, and George Washington’s knowledge and consideration of it, might as well be me...
History.com notes (emphasis added), "When George Washington took command of the Continental Army in 1775, America was fighting a war on two fronts: one for independence from the British, and a second for survival against smallpox. Because Washington knew the ravages of the disease firsthand, he understood that the smallpox virus, then an invisible enemy, could cripple his army and end the war before it began.
That’s why Washington eventually made the bold decision to inoculate all American troops who had never been sickened with smallpox at a time when inoculation was a crude and often deadly process."

He got lucky with that one. His faith in science wound up killing him as doctors bled him to treat his quincy.
Quinsy: A peritonsillar abscess. A painful, pus-filled collection of tissue that forms in the back of the throat near one of the tonsils.
Natural immunity? Washington’s troops were inoculated with the a milder form of the disease obtained from the Smallpox pustules in the skin of infected Smallpox victims. The method was to cut a person’s skin and rub the minor incision with a thread or cloth contaminated with a less-virulent version of smallpox, which in this case was a strain known as “variola.”
How Crude Smallpox Inoculations Helped George Washington Win the War“An inoculation doctor would cut an incision in the flesh of the person being inoculated and implant a thread laced with live pustular matter into the wound,” explains Fenn. “The hope and intent was for the person to come down with smallpox. When smallpox was conveyed in that fashion, it was usually a milder case than it was when it was contracted in the natural way.”
Variolization still had a case fatality rate of 5 to 10 percent. And even if all went well, inoculated patients still needed a month to recover. The procedure was not only risky for the individual patient, but for the surrounding population. An inoculee with a mild case might feel well enough to walk around town, infecting countless others with potentially more serious infections.
It wasn't popular with the troops but they all did what they had to do. Sure makes modern Americans look wimpy to sell their American birthright away because of disease with a 0.2% IFR.
It wasn’t the bleeding that killed him, even though that’s bad medicine and his wife Martha disagreed with such things.
Some doctors have diagnosed Washington’s fatal disease as acute epiglottitis rather than cynanche trachealis (croup) or a peritonsillar abscess (quinsy).
to be fair,
there weren’t alinsky socialists able to control media and scare people 24/7/365 about a disease that has asurvival rate well, well over 99% for almost everyone except the demographics that are always hardest hit by any disease.
Smallpox, having an IFR of 30%, was scary enough back then without any propaganda.

CRISIS IN AMERICA: MILLIONS OF NURSES ARE RESIGNING OR BEING FIRED OVER COVID VACCINE MANDATES
Hospitals and health clinics are where the rubber hits the road in the implementation of Globalist Big Pharma genocide, thus one of the major fronts of World War III is being fought by employees of the healthcare system.
Nurses who were being hailed as “heroes” by the propaganda media a year ago are now being called “terrorists” for refusing the vaccine mandates.
Rather than to ask nurses why they don’t want the vaxx, these erstwhile heroes are now being cast as “ignorant” and “uneducated” by the bribed elitists in the gaslighting industrial complex.
It’s estimated that over 50% of the nursing staff in the US will be forced to walk off the job in the next few weeks.
But exactly who else is better qualified to evaluate the effectiveness or harm caused by the vaxx, if not the nurses who treat those who are vaxxed, every day?
As Katie Kirn, RN from Michigan says, “We are being forced to decide between risking debilitating injury or death from this experimental vaccine with the highest mortality rate in history – which of course, will not be covered by the manufacturer, government or hospital – or losing our jobs and financial stability. Many nurses are leaving healthcare, altogether.
“Exemptions are not the answer. We should not be forced to apply for an exemption from a mandate that is Unconstitutional, in the first place. Freedom is the answer. We went from Hero-to-Zero, essential to completely expendable.”
Another nurse wields her nursing handbook and says, “Battery is an assault and it includes willful, violent angry touching of another person’s body, clothing or anything attached to them.
“Forcibly removing patients’ clothing and administering injection after the patient has refused it are all examples of battery. This is in my nursing book from 4 years ago. This is what they teach us.
“If we did this to a patient – if you told your patient informed consent and they said ‘No’ and you did it, anyway, you would go to jail, you’d get your nursing license taken away and you’d be a criminal.
“So, now what they’re doing is putting us in a position of saying, ‘Either you become a victim of a crime, both voluntarily and the nurse giving the injection, when they know you don’t want it, is committing a crime, that nurse can lose their license and we’re being told to be a victim of a crime in order to keep our employment.”
Ask yourself, if you ended up in the hospital, who would you rather be treated by: healthcare workers who stand on principles, even if it means losing their careers, or healthcare workers who are willing the look the other way and follow genocidal protocols, just so they can keep collecting their paychecks
Smallpox does not have an animal reservoir, like coronavirus does. There has yet to be a successful inoculation against any virus with an animal reservoir.
