The soldiers were deliberately infected with a weak strain of the virus (Chicken Pox). This made it so their bodies were resistant to similar diseases, like Smallpox.

Later, this practice was developed further, leading to the true Smallpox vaccine and then to vaccines as we know them today.

And, so?
What's your point?

The point is countering some dumb f**k in the comments of a meme (and several more in the trending tab on Twitter) making the asinine claim that Washington didn't order inoculations for his soldiers.

But what does that have to do with anything regarding what is happening in 2021?

So your "evidence" is literally some random video on Instagram, and that this somehow is worth more than government articles, including one that's listed by the Library of Congress?

Seriously, go do real research and get your head out of the rabbit hole.

Your government is constantly lying to you, and yet you love your Stockholm syndrome.
I can see why that video link would bother your dependence on your oppressors, since it challenges your government bullshit with believable common sense anyone can understand.

You do realize that your charming George Washington narrative has NOTHING to do with COVID since what Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca are shooting into people is NOT A VACCINE by definition. The historical accuracy of your Revolutionary War story is utterly a moot point.

ok, if you somehow know some special snowflake definition of what constitutes a "true vaccine" them please do enlighten me as to what your terms of definition are.

Meanwhile, here's the dictionary definition

There is no part of a dead or severely weakened virus in the COVID jab, as has been the case with measles, polio, etc. Their "vaccine" is an experimental gene therapy that killed every lab animal it was introduced into. Every. Single. One.

whoa, hold up.

"is an experimental gene therapy that killed every lab animal it was introduced into"

Unless you can prove that *very* bold claim, I can safely say you're absolutely full of shit

what part of "or a synthetic substitute" do you fail to comprehend?
