> Maybe you can explain why polio and most diseases we all had in the old days went away?

Red herring fallacy.

> And why they all came back when the nutty anti-vaxers started their luddite jihad?

Begging the question fallacy.

This is quite hilarious. I bet if this conversation continues, there will literally be every fallacy in the book come out, in preference to actually addressing the concerns of skeptics.

Swing and a miss. Answer the question moron. Why did polio and other deadly diseases vanish in America? And why did it and others recently come resurging back?

Vaccinations eradicated it. Unvaccinated people brought it back.

That’s not a red herring.
