The only vaccination I had as a child at school was for polio...

Like you and like every other kid in the 50s I got measles, mumps, chicken pox and I believe there was also something called ‘German measles’. I remember getting ‘shots’ at school but I don’t remember what they were for as well as a smallpox vaccination.

Comrades, it is important not to blame our ‘newcomers’ for the outbreak of long-forgotten diseases. The blame clearly lies with the Mega-Maga antivaxxers
