In an age of irrational fear of contagion — that leads so many to their deaths as they flee to vaccination as a supposed preventative — it is important to note that many conditions and diseases that were once said to be contagious are no longer so. The hubris of many pro-vaxxers — as if they have contagion all figured out — has no bounds.
“Perhaps the greatest evil of immunization lies in its diversion of public attention from true methods of disease prevention. It encourages public authorities to permit all kinds of sanitary defects … It ignores the part played by food and sunlight and many other factors in the maintenance of health.” —— M. Beddow Bayly, M.R.C.S., 1944
