Really is impressive how the empire is tearing itself apart over something as foundational and (originally) apolitical as vaccinations
Even just 15 years ago, being an anti-vaxxer got you derision from everyone
Now, it gets you elected surgeon general lmao
Disgraced former doctor and medical science fraudster Mr. Andrew Wakefield and his consequences have been a disaster for public health
Even the USSR and US had vaccine deplomacy on smallpox. This here is dangerous
Eventually. Iirc, The USSR had to basically drag the US kicking and screaming into vaccinating the third world.
And they had distributed hundreds of millions of doses too.
Ya, I think it was largely a USSR/UN project or something that they eventually got the US to help fund. The US probably being reticent because of their love of using Smallpox and other biologicals in warfare.

Yes, because we will have had a socialist revolution
