It is amazing how so many people just assume so many things are just made up because they haven't ever experienced them personally. If their dog gets rabies and gives it to them they are likely to be a dead person walking before they realize how stupid that choice was.

To say nothing of the people that just seem to think things like Measles, Mumps, and Rubella were just apparently no big deal and the MMR vaccine only exists to put microchips in their kids or some nonsense. It is hard to believe so few people have even a passing familiarity with historical things that were everyday life as recently as when their grandparents and maybe parents were kids.
