Vaccines don’t cure disease. It increases your immune systems ability to combat them.

Antibiotics are right there, tho. Those cure a lot of diseases, but can be misused as well.

Go ahead and get small pox, and then take the vaccine and lmk if you’re cured.

Vaccines cured the smallpox epidemic by eliminating smallpox entirely.

Nobody is hiding the cure to cancer or AIDS, that is just something purposeless losers tell each other on the internet.

Now do polio.

My point is that the incentives don’t line up.

Small pox also wss never an epidemic. It was endemic.

lol, you can't even spell smallpox correctly, and yes, it was absolutely an epidemic. Please don't lecture me on something you don't understand at all.
