Thanks to NordVPN for supporting this show. Get 70% ’… so like, once we resolve the covid problem, can we all collectively agree to panic and globally throw extra trillions at more research for these top two? Because, just saying, just because it’s familiar doesn’t mean we should accept it… If half of us are destined to die this way, best to die trying not to.) In any event, rounding out the rest of the top 10 we have- #3- Accidents (170K people per year in the U.S.), #4- Chronic respiratory diseases (160K people), #5- Stroke (146K), #6- Alzheimer’s (121K), #7- Diabetes (83K), #8- Influenza pneumonia (55K), #9- Kidney Disease (50K), and #10- Suicide (47K). No anti-vaccinator today is worried about their children getting things like small-pox or polio thanks to vaccines, and child mortality rates reflect that. Sadly on the other side, child mortality rates also reflect that in regions of the world where people don’t have access to such medical miracles. For further reference here, smallpox, a disease that’s been around for over 2000 years, was completely eradicated from the wild in 1980! Before that, however, in the 20th century alone- a time when a vaccine had long existed- it still killed off an estimated half a billion people before humanity drop-kicked it in the gonads because our scientists are kind of awesome sometimes. Given that for most of human history you could expect at least one, and very likely more, of your children to die before they reached adulthood, often from such rampant diseases, and today losing a child is relatively rare in the developed world- not to mention the many, many millions of adults who get to keep on keeping on because of vaccines- these miracles of medicine are collectively thought to be one of the greatest achievements in human history. This might all have you wondering, if we can create vaccines for everything from Chickenpox to Tetanus, why, with the obscene amounts of money and brain power leveled at viruses like HI
