Joplin has a covid problem. They've got almost all ICU units and ventilators used. Someone posted that Missouri has one of the lowest vaccination rates in the country, so I went and checked how bad it was in Missouri.
Joplin has a significantly higher rate of vaccinations than Sedgwick County.
Diseases we no longer concern ourselves with because they've mostly been eliminated by mass vaccinations
Polio
Smallpos
Measles
Mumps
Rubella
Tetanus
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis B
Whooping Cough
Pneumococcal Pneumonia
Chickenpox
Diphtheria
Disease (or infections) we could control if we would get vaccinated against them
Covid
HPV
If we had the same response to the polio vaccine as we're seeing to the covid vaccine, we'd still be seeing polio cases today.
