As a non-shitpost tid bit, this picture is depicting Edward Jenner, who made the first vaccine by inoculating people (first milkmaids, then anyone) against cowpox. Basically just took a scalpel and took some material from the sore on a cow with cowpox and scraped it on people.
Turned out pretty effective - and down the line we have vaccines
Didn't he start with an orphan because no one would care about him? Which is harsh by modern standards.
Also: cow is "vacca" in Latin and that's there we got the word vaccine from.
Gotta admit, that's pretty bad ass.
I do imagine if he failed. Then he'd be the guy who did weird things to people.
I imagine he might not be the first person who did, the rest are just lost to history due to lack of observable / recorded results.
Earlier generations of people tended to have kind of a general, observation based understanding of that kind of thing where cause and effect was generally observed but people didn’t understand the why of it. People even very early on knew that if you caught a disease once you were less likely to catch it severely again, and they knew that if you quarantined a group of people the disease would eventually “die out”, but they had no real idea as to why in either case.
He'd be a that did weird things to people. History is lousy with those.
That's the future liberals want for our country! Didn't you wonder why a so called "global pandemic" happened in election year? What's the global catastrophe of this election? Climate crisis happening during election season? Wake up! #awakebutnotwoke
Not sure if sarcastic, trolling or insanely stupid... down voted anyway.
Sir, this is a shitposting community. Anyway, google Poe's Law
I took a dump today and wiped back to front and ended up with some shit in my ballsack wrinkles and needed to have a shower to deal with that.
Anyways here’s an upvote.
