Time to bust another myth.
Invention of inoculation/vaccination is attributed by the colonials to Edward Jenner. This is a myth created by the colonizers.
Colonizers stole the technology from India.
Thread with proof and reference. #Vaccination was invented in India
Before Islamic and Christian colonizers came in, India was self-sufficient with indigenous knowledge to fight diseases.
British resident at Bengal, T J Holwell saw how Brahmins (his word should have been Vaidyas) inoculated against the smallpox.
After returning to England, Holwell published paper to College of Physicians at London.
East Indies he refers to in the account is India.
See the date of publication. That date underlined is in Roman Numerals corresponds to year 1767!
Jenner published his paper on variolation in 1801.
Now let us study the paper published by Holwell. I have provided Gutenberg link so that everyone can read it for themselves (original article obtained from Harvard Medical School)
See how Holwell describes the inoculation corps going from village to village.
See how they inoculate on arms. See how they make sure to rub the arm to remove debris to prevent secondary infections.
See how Holwell writes about Indian inoculation with less than one in million adverse events (his word underlined)
See how Holwell did not believe Indian Medical System at first and then got convinced afterwards.
See how miscarriage is separately tracked. The Indian doctors (he incorrectly calls them as Bramins , but we know they are Vaidya)
Whole article is at this link if you want to read it yourself. I have provided the link at the end. But want you to focus on the following additional gems.
See Indian medical system describing germs.
That probably is another myth that Leeuwenhoek discovered Germ theory. More on that later.
He also mentions about fermentation... Pasteur too will be investigated now.
Next point I want you to note, is he writing about herd immunity and better medical care for Indians compared to Europeans.
See the link between sugar and disease as known to Indians!
After Jenner made a small tweak to the variolation using cows (sacred to Hindus) he went about claiming credit for something that was stolen from India.
British government banned all the Indian Vaidyas from inoculation in 1840.
Colonialism had its last laugh when indigenous medical establishment was decimated. Church's doctrine of Dum Diversas harmed millions in India and elsewhere. Please understand and thank India when you take your next vaccine!
Thank you for your patience.
Please understand India's history written by colonizers is mostly fake.
Follow me as I keep breaking the myths.

This thread will discuss how to use Sugar and then also explains why this usage is correct as per biochemistry.
Sugar was invented by Hindus. Hindus understood inflammatory processes aided by the sugar and called it Kapha producing. The Kapha adds to corpulence.
#India history in Italy. A short thread to wake up Indians.
Please note this proves India traded with Italy around the time mythical figure of Jesus was born.
The picture I posted is what my friend took while visiting Naples Museum. This is not for public display. You must ask for permission to enter this room. Those who go there enjoy the exquisitely carved sculpture known as Pompei Lakshmi.
This statue is now in Naples Archaeological Museum. Inventory number 149425.
Indian statuette was found on October 24th, 1938, in one of the houses of Pompei in a wooden chest in one of the rustic rooms off the portico.
Busting a myth promoted by #Catholic missionaries about Bharatnatyam.
British seized the temples and called Bharat Natyam dancers as "temple prostitutes".
A small thread today busting the secular, catholic and colonial narrative.
In 1910 British Government banned the performance of Bharat Natyam in the temples as an assault on the indigenous culture and push for mass conversions into Christianity.
The supposed reason for banning was the effort of a missionary organization which started anti dance movement in 1892. As per the petition made by the missionaries, Bharatnatyam is " debased erotic culture of slavery to idols and priests."
Tonight, I will be busting claim that #potatoes were brought to India by Vasco Da Gama similar to claims about Chili pepper, Banana, Barley, Rice, Maize, Coriander, Ginger and so on.
This thread needs you to know some science and some patience.
Please read & share.
Evolution is constant. And evolution teaches us to look for commonality to understand how things evolve and provide signs on what came first. This is the only way to bust the claims of Catholic Church which does not believe in evolution.
The taxonomy system divides all the living beings into
Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus and Species.
This is how it is represented in Encyclopedia Britannica.
Order consists of multiple families.
