70 years ago my best friend suffered from crippling polio. Others in the town also suffered, it was a common problem. Along came the vaccine and I've not seen or heard of a case since.
My father died at age 32 leaving my mother with three young kids. He died from septicaemia, caused by scratching a pimple on the back of his neck. These days a shot of antibiotics would fix it in short time.
These might be just stories to you, but they are actual facts. True stories. Covid may be a different story but annual flu vaccines seem to help prevent bad flu outbreaks. Tetanus vaccines have saved many lives as has measles vaccines. I can remember seeing young people going blind following a bad measles epidemic. Diptheria and whooping cough have almost been eliminated.

and antibiotics are not vaccines. that modern medicine is sometimes wonderful doesnt mean vaccines work, or they are safe, or helpful, or really do as described.
