If the Clowns in Trump's Party Were Around in 1776, We Would Have Lost the Revolution As They'd Have Opposed Gen Washington's Smallpox Vaccine Mandate

Wahington only pushed innoculations on his troops.

How many Trumpists do you think would have lasted in the Continental Army?

Just to clear up the history questions:

[quote]In late 1776, as Gen. George Washington led his troops through the opening battles of the American Revolution, it was not necessarily the enemy fighters who posed the biggest risk to the fledgling U.S. Army.

An estimated 90% of deaths in the Continental Army were caused by disease, and the most vicious were variants of smallpox, according to the U.S. Library of Congress.

That's why Gen. Washington made the controversial decision to order the mass inoculation of his soldiers, an effort to combat spread of the disease that was at the time a major deterrent to enlistments and posed the risk of debilitating his army and tipping the balance of power against America's first warfighters.

According to the U.S. Library of Congress's Science, Technology, and Business Division, the smallpox inoculations began Jan. 6, 1777, for all of Washington's forces who came through the then-capital of Philadelphia, and through Morristown, New Jersey, following the Battle of Princeton.[/quote]

I think in 1776 mandate meant just that. Deserting, I dont think, was an option.

So true. Those clowns .

Uh, the first smallpox vaccination was in 1796. Washington must have been prescient and had one heck of a supply chain.

Maybe. Maybe not.
