The goodest of good boys.

Folks have already pointed out the whole "multiple teams of sled dogs" thing.
The dogs also weren't delivering vaccine. They were delivering diphtheria antitoxin, which is a treatment for diphtheria, not an inoculation. The kids were already sick.
There was technically a vaccine for diphtheria then (it was invented in 1923, two years before this epidemic), but it wouldn't have saved anyone who'd already caught the infection.
-
people really do not understand what vaccines do
-
-
Thats right, because Togo did it. Balto was just given all the credit becuse he did the final leg.
-
Neither did Balatro
-
Good reminder to give that game another chunk of my life.
-
You joker

remember to spade and neuter your pets. o7

Well you're right. Balto didn't do it.
-
Fuckin stolen valor asshole dog
-
Fuck that. Balto's owner was the asshole. Balto himself and his team were sold and spent years malnourished and chained to a sled in a freak show wondering what they did wrong, and when they were finally "rescued" they wound up in a zoo. Well fed, but in cages while people gawked at them. Balto watched the rest of his team die one by one until he himself died blind and paralyzed.
Togo spent the rest of his life with his family. Neither dog knew they were famous or why, but Togo knew he was loved.
-
He was a good boy, don't blame him for what people did.
-
I don't quite remember the story, but I don't think Balto had much of a say in his portrayal
-
I think Togo won in the end, because Balto and his sled team basically became freak show animals and later live museum exhibits, chained and starving, like they weren't living creatures at all. They were later rescued and ended their days as zoo animals. After Balto died he was stuffed and put in a museum.
Meanwhile Togo and his team went on tours, were given gold medals, continuing their lives as sled dogs and Togo got to retire in a nice kennel where he was bred and lived well until he was euthanized at the age of 16 due to health complications.
Don't feel bad for Togo. He may have been largely forgotten to history, but he sure as shit won the life lottery compared to Balto.

lol

Been a while. Was it a vaccine? I thought it was penicillin he was hauling.
-
Looked it up. We are both wrong. Apparently it was a specific antitoxin serum for diphtheria. Still not a vaccine but also not penicillin.
-
-
I’m not sure this is the case, but I like to imagine that the statue is polished from people petting it.
-
The sled dog team led by Balto didn't deliver vaccines. The vaccine for Diphtheria didn't exist in 1925.
They delivered diphtheria antitoxin serum which was the only treatment at the time.
The image has a good sentiment though. The Florida change is just more undermining of public schools to push private charter school enrollment. These bozos in our government voted in vouchers to directly subsidize the businesses they themselves are invested in.

To be fair, the covid vaccine isn't a vaccine. It's an experimental genetic therapy (created by a corporation that would happily murder you for profit).
That's the facts.
-
I'm pretty sure you misunderstood the way these vaccines work - no judgment, media is ass these days - so let me clear it out for you.
mRNA vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna) give cells a piece of RNA (ribonucleic acid) coding the spike proteins of SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19. mRNA normally serves as a translation layer: it simply comes to rRNA, lays down and says "we make THIS". And there's the end of it. No long-term changes are made, the cell just produces respective proteins for a while, before new genuine orders come along.
In this process, spike proteins of SARS-CoV-2 are being created, are being recognized by the immune system as something that is clearly not yours, destroyed and remembered. Other than this response typical for any vaccine or illness, nothing else ultimately changes.
Vector vaccines (Johnson & Johnson, Sputnik V) put the spike-coding sequence into another virus that is otherwise harmless. Then this virus enters your body with a shot, and then much the same thing occurs.
To be clear: viruses do these kinds of things all the time. SARS-CoV-2, that very virus causing COVID-19, does this too, except it instructs cells to replicate the entire thing, so that it could infect other cells and proliferate. In this way, such vaccines are no different than just getting infected, with one major difference in that you don't get sick in the first place and don't have random dangerous code replicate all around your body. Harmless spike proteins get formed in a controlled manner and quantity - and that's it.
Even if you were an evil billionaire wishing to decimate human population or something, you'd have very hard time making something RNA-based that somehow persists in the body and also doesn't reveal the effects for a long while. Easier to do with vector-based vaccines, but very hard to make it unnoticeable, either.

RNA vaccines may be relatively new, but they aren't genetic therapy. It does not get integrated into your DNA.
Plus, weren't there 3 covid vaccines? One of them used a more traditional method.
-
A vaccine is a substance used to stimulate the production of antibodies and provide immunity against a disease. The COVID-19 vaccines do exactly this.
It trains your body to fight the disease. The methods and techniques are different but the fundamentals are still the same. It's ridiculous to think that its permanent genetic modification.
-
The only "genetic modification" that I understand happening is the modification to our immune systems being able to fight diseases much better than before. Eventually getting rid of diseases entirely.
But I guess people thought that was stupid, so now we have measles again like its 1953

You nailed the murder for profit part, but you really missed the mark on everything else

They don't have sled dogs in Florida.
-
Do they use sled alligators?
-
Only at christmastime.
'Twas the night before Christmas An' all t'ru de house...'
-
No, alligators are lazy, ambush predators that stalk and move slowly. Crocodiles are more versatile, faster, and have more stamina for sledding.
-
-
It was actually several different sled dogs that made the trip and Togo did the longest and most difficult part. There's a movie about Togo on Disney+
-
Listen, smart arse, ive never been deathly ill in all my life, so what was the point of getting all these vaccines?
Checkmate, big-pharma bootlickers.

Pshhh. What do you mean? What u don't personally experience as being real isn't real.
Duh...

We have to draw a hard line with these traitors. Mandatory vaccination for everyone entering decent states from traitor states.
