Lots of inane comments from Elon/Rohan bros that vaccines don’t prevent disease.

Let’s debunk these claims:
1. Polio - vaccine introduced 1957

2. Measles - vaccine introduced 1963

3. Tetanus - vaccine 1938

4. Diphtheria

5. Hepatitis A - 1996

6. Hepatitis B - 1982

Lots of tin foil hat folks acknowledge that COVID deaths are reduced by the vaccine but claim an increase in all cause mortality.

In fact the opposite is true: COVID vaccination was associated with LOWER all cause mortality & non-COVID mortality.
