He starts off by talking about a terrible moment during Jim Crow of forced vaccinations against polio in black people. He's right on this.
But we know the polio vaccine works. Tariq is probably old enough to have gotten it, but we know his parents definitely did.
Then, he goes into this true story of a slave practicing a crude form of inoculation. This is true and this also happened. He also endorses this sort of primitive medicine.
Heres the problem.
Inoculation is literally a primitive form of vaccination. Its even way more dangerous!...but it has the potential to work! modern vaccines are LITERALLY more effective! Inoculation literally takes introduces LIVE ACTIVE pathogens. VACCINES DO NOT. This is why INNOCULATIONS tend to be way more dangerous!
Just endorsing "ancient medicine from Africa" doesn't mean shyt as a statement! It works, or it doesn't!
Bottom line. The guy doesn't know shyt about medicine and thats what's so frustrating about him and his history. He will get like 80-90% of HISTORY correct, then blow the remaining crucial 10-20% on absolute bullshyt that completely shows he doesn't understand WTF he's talking about
The guy doesn't even know what he's attacking because he doesn't understand the science of immunology!
Innoculations are LITERALLY attempts at vaccinations!!
Start at 1:19:00
Then at 1:26:00 he LITERALLY endorses inoculation!
All these vaccine skeptics are just terrible representations of comprehension and these fatal errors in their thinking is killing people
So which is it?
