3. I got a fuck-ton of vaccines when I joined the Army.

Another large panel of them when I went overseas, and then a few boosters when I was ordered to the Gulf in 1991.

I never questioned the need for them, and no one protested them other than by rubbing their arms afterwards and saying "Man, that HURT!"

I wish vaccine protests had never become a thing, and certainly that the anti-vaxxers had never drafted 'personal choice' into their putrid arguments. One should not have the right to choose to expose other people to deadly diseases.
