    A note on Polio : It has NOT been eradicated, though very heavily reduced. In 2019 there were 175 cases of wild polio and 364 cases of vaccine-derived polio (note that more cases were derived from people being vaccinated - although, obviously, there must have been even more who were saved from the disease by vaccination).

    Only two diseases have so far been eradicated, as far as we know, and they are smallpox and rinderpest (a disease of cattle).

    The same for India, mass vaccination beginning today (multiple news reports): You line up at the station and get one of two vaccines, no personal selection. One is the Oxford vaccine, but produced in India, and the other an Indian vaccine.

    Are they distributed at a 7 Eleven? And do you have to come again for a follow up shot?

    I have found the smaller pox for sale at some 7/11s, but usually "'Out of Stock' sir". I think you can get the Indian Vaccine at 6/12, the Indian franchise for 7/11.

    Unfortunately, and this is where my information falls down a little - I have NO SOURCE for either. :smile:

    I believe our military is the most socialistic sub-society of any and I am not complaining about the life it has made possible for me.

    Most American politicians have been vaccinated already and quite publicly because they want the vaccine to be accepted in spite of the rush to get it out of the labs.

    The info sheet handed out with the Pfizer vaccine states that the "vaccine is an unapproved vaccine that may prevent Covid-19. There is no FAD-approved vaccine to prevent Covid-19."

    On its face this is not very reassuring but it has been out and administered for more than a month now.
