  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

100 million doses of BCG given a year to infants to prevent against an infant form of TB, so most people in the world have them.

In Finland, it was given to all kids until 2006. I have the scar on my hip.

Really?

I don't have one, and I was a kid in Finland in the early 2000s.

It was given in the hospital after birth, so maybe it did not leave that visible scars for everyone?

THL:n sivuilta löytyy hyvin tuo rokotusohjelman historia.

Hmm, could be, or maybe they switched to a different kind of vaccine in the later years?

Yea my partner who's from thailand, now living in europe, has one on their arm, but I don't have one

[–] Fleppensteijn@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Because that's normal in Thailand or because she's an immigrant?

[–] DekSomBoon@lemmy.today 5 points 2 days ago

I think its just normal there, they get them as a kid/baby
