Imagine the anti vax movement, in Leicester back in the 1870s.!?

Do we suppose they had conspiracy theorists, false flags, state agents (certainly soldiers - force vaxxing unwilling punters)…

The Mayor of Leicester, telling local peasants, that the ‘Vaccine’: saved his life. (No one’s safe till we’re all scratched and bleeding, daubed, infected and contaminated with this putrid gunk).!!

Maybe even ‘bad actors’ of the day; bandaged, blood shot eyes, demanding to be vaxxed up. Hired hands; collapsing in the street, pretending to be dead (Wuhan style).. Mis/Dis and Mal information, from all the messenger RNA militias, local press barons, And all the Kingsmen.!!

Great bit of research Francis. And some fabulous facts and stats. But obviously, in your earnestness, to get these missives of yesteryear out there, the Baroque tales of ‘inoculation’ etc; you’ve completely forgotten just how many countless hundreds of millions of lives were saved, across the world.!!

Follow the early science, guys.

I think there was an astonishing echo of the Leicester demonstration of 1885, in the London marches of 2021. The similarities are there. They definitely had coerced vaccinations in both eras.

Actually, although I take your point the mayor of Leicester was against the compulsory medication and addressed the 1885 rally.

I thought you were going to tell me something obvious I had missed but yes the evidence that vaccines have saved millions of lives is missing.

Thank you for an instructive analysis. Perhaps we all owe doctors and their pharmaceutical corporation allies a debt of gratitude because they have demonstrated, albeit inadvertently, how to achieve a superior level of health: just do the opposite of whatever they recommend. Instead of "follow the science," the gold standard could become "follow the example of the Amish."
