This month is Polio Fucking Awareness Month, as declared by me. I just think that considering how things have been going lately, we could all use a lot more fucking awareness about polio.
I mean, back about 60 years ago, I attended
a public elementary school for cripples that was very exclusive. By that I mean
that the kids who were students there were all very excluded from our
neighborhood public schools.
We called some of our fellow students
polios because that’s why they were crippled. They caught the polio virus.
The polios were all older than me because
a few years earlier a polio vaccine was developed so no one caught polio
anymore. And getting vaccinated was easy as hell. When I got mine, I just ate a
sugar cube with a red spot on it. It was ridiculous. I couldn’t believe that’s
all I had to do to keep from ever catching fucking polio.
I guess people don’t eat sugar cubes
anymore, judging by the stuff I’ve been reading lately. I guess if you want to
get vaccinated against fucking polio, you have to get a shot in the arm. But so
fucking what? That sure beats the hell out of catching fucking polio.
But now I see where fucking polio is
making a comeback. People in New York are catching fucking polio.
I can’t believe it! And it’s still the
case that if you don’t ever want to get fucking polio, all you have to do is
take the goddam vaccine!
I don’t know what the hell is going on. I
hope this isn’t yet another example of the kind of shit that happens when there
are a lot of douche bags running around who think not being vaccinated against
anything makes them hip and cool, when all it does is put them in the asshole
vanguard. And they think it’s their inalienable Constitutional right to cough
in everyone else’s face like Typhoid Fucking Mary, free from government interference.
I swear if anything is going to wipe out the whole human race it’ll be goddam
libertarianism!
Maybe these morons will help polio make
such a roaring comeback that a new strain will develop that will smash through
the vaccination wall and send us all back to square fucking one. Then they’ll be
real proud of themselves!
Okay but to be fair (which I really hate
to do), the stuff I’ve been reading lately also says that some people don’t
know whether or not they’re vaccinated against polio.
Fair enough. If you don’t remember eating
a sugar cube or getting a shot in the arm, then go find out if you’ve ever
received the polio vaccine. If you haven’t, then get it. Jesus Christ, I can’t
believe this is even up for debate!
