        Kids today can't read cursive. This is exactly why we need to keep teaching it in school.

        It's the opposite of now. The religious people were smart, praising variolation. 2021's anti-vaxxers/anti-maskers (AKA dummies) are disproportionately religious.

        Interesting story but small pox and SARS-CoV-should not be compared. Small pox has a 30% mortality rate and no cure or treatment exists. Vaccine hesitancy is due to the fact that SARS-CoV-2 has a less than 1% mortality rate with known and effective treatment.
