@bytebro @statsguy Well, at least what I've seen from written history, I'd say that is correct.

@bytebro @RickiTarr I'm sure that's true, though to be fair, until a couple of hundred years ago, that's really all there was anyway.

What's interesting is that anti-vaxxers have been around for as long as vaccines, and the kind of nonsense that anti-vaxxers come up with today is spookily similar to the stuff that people were saying back when smallpox vaccine was invented back in the 1700s.
