Reading the news, I'm seeing articles on the resurgence in the U.S. of things that we had either eliminated or vaccinated against years ago:
Bedbugs
Typhoid
Whooping Cough
Measles
Tuberculosis
What the hell is going on?
Well, part of what is going on is that there is a strong anti-science sentiment among the more Conservative elements of this nation. One that claims that the scientists advice concerning vacinations is wrong and dangerous. One that seems to believe that any advice from any government agency is some kind of 'librul' conspiracy. You see it from the science concerning climate to medicine.
In 1850, the average US male life expectancy was 38 years.Just because there exist antibiotic resistant bacterium out there doesn't mean that our bodies' immune systems can't fight them. It means that the bacteria is resistant to most antibiotics.
The key is taking care of our bodies. The problem is, our population is weak, unfit, hooked on medicines, eats crap.
Why was it so low? Because people died young of disease all the time.
In 1850, 80% of Americans lived on the farm.Yes, even at as 1900 dawned, the average lifespan was just over 40 years. Yet, my paternal grandparents raised 11 out of 11 children, my maternal grandparents raised 11 of 13. And three of my grandparents lived past 90, the exception died of cancer at 86. All were raised and lived in a very rural environment. Population density and clean water had a great deal to do with ones chances in prior centuries.
Your relatives were outliers.
I worry about more significant problems..
The unforgivable over-medication of our children, coupled with the egregious meat and poultry industry feeding our children meat that contains..shit (literally), growth hormones and anti-biotics.
We are very effectively creating a super virus.

What do you mean? It is all part of the conservative movement.
We go back we get the bad stuff as well.

The Democrats are causing epidemics?Nothing more than the liberal media trying to shift the focus off politics because the outlook is bleak for them. None of the dems are making statements about the things they have accomplished, rather they are using the tired line of the repubs want to return to the Bush era policies. They are distancing themselves from their voting records to try and improve things for November.

If eagleseven is right, we are going to start dying of very strange, disfiguring illnesses. I personally think that he is correct. And yet another reason IMO is environmental racism. We have not controlled lead paint exposure and have stressed city kids even further with bad food, proximity to the dump, etc.
People who can afford to do so are now fleeing Cleveland's inner ring suburbs for outer ring ones...willing to drive 90 minutes one way in terrible traffic to work to avoid the spillover of crime, traffic and decay from the city. Such population patterns are not sustainable.
Environmental racism is a conscious choice to place high-risk features (dumps, jails, etc.) in poor neighborhoods, or to neglect the needs of inner-city poor for lead paint abatement and decent food, etc.
