Polio can't be compared to COVID when you talk about vaccines.
COVID mutates like the flu, meaning a vaccine was never meant to eradicate it. It simply can't.
COVID vaccines still help to prevent severe illness, but it was never a permanent cure.
People were morons, but even if we all did what we were told to do, COVID would still exist.
My favorite thing about social media is people who argue for no good reason other than to entertain themselves.
No I don’t.

To be fair, there was a chance. If 8 billion humans observed quarantine properly and vaccinated we would destroy all forms of influenza.
Didn't we do that? Now my kid is bringing home a different strain every other day
In theory yes, but it's just not realistic for the whole world. In the western world, yes, we can isolate us if we want. It's just not that easy everywhere.
I said a chance. Not that it was a big one.
You going too deep with it.
