What is your actual point? I'm against state inforced vaccine mandates. You are for them. Why did you bring up Smallpox? You think that because a vaccine was mandatory somewhere on earth at time when I was not alive, I would quickly change my mind and now become pro state enforced vaccine mandate's?
Desperate people do stupid things
Not exactly.
Well... you say this:
Including the mandates that applied to smallpox?
More like not anti mandate.
It is possible that the Netherlands never had a mandate for vaccination. Hard to say though as this is dating back over a century. According to Wikipedia sourcing from the Smallpox vaccine:
According to this site, the last case of Smallpox in the Netherlands occurred in 1900. One would assume that either people saw Smallpox as a huge problem and ignored "anti-vaxxers" or there was some type of mandatory vaccination process.

It actually worked. He’s free of the virus.One of the stupidest things ever. Worked out well for this chap.
Man Who Went To COVID Party Dies From the Virus
Some young people are deliberately attempting to catch COVID-19 in order to build immunity from the virus, an official has said.www.newsweek.com
Ok... I don't remember qualifying that question with "where you live". And doing so would completely miss the point, and needlessly derail the conversation.
Ok so now you're trying to say it without saying it.
Damn, cought lying again. There was a mandate (with an easy opt out) long before I came into this world. I'm still not in favor of a vaccine mandate.
I'ts all I can give you because no matter what I say, you can't accept that I'm against vaccine mandates.
I believe people would do the right thing and get vaccinated against smallpox in the current age where information is readily available. The horrific nature of smallpox would drive people to do the right thing.
Silly question.
Except that I'm literally accepting it.
I'd love to think so, but here you are arguing against yourself. 770,000 people in my country have dropped dead in a very short period of time.
Is it? I suppose then I can infer that the answer to that question is no? (why do you have so much trouble answering questions directly) If you don't have the right to spread smallpox, exactly how is that different from participating in society that is experiencing a smallpox epidemic without a vaccination? Hope? Faith in Jesus?
You are kinda doing your best to advertise for that cause.
This feels like the point where you've stepped over the line of having an opinion to outright lies. People died. If you're going to say that they didn't then your evidence better be spectacular, because that's not something to be playing the troll with.
If it didn't happen in the last 36 years in the Netherlands, it doesn't count, huh?
But this you don't:
I did not say people didn't die. I've posted multiple times on the numbers of people that died of COVID. You misunderstood my reply. Context.
You guys really have a hard time with understanding what the difference between being against vaccine mandates and being against vaccination is. I'm not against vaccination.If it didn't happen in the last 36 years in the Netherlands, it doesn't count, huh?
This you believe (since you're the one that posted it):
But this you don't:
Your post simply said that the statement that 770,000 people died was wrong. Without further clarification that can be taken any number of ways, the most obvious of which is that no people died at all.
I've seen you post about how old people are the only ones dying of COVID, but I've not seen you dispute the actual numbers of dead.
770,000 American died with COVID. That is a fact.
Again a nope, wrong. I did not say that only the old ones are dying of COVID.
Context was the horrific nature of a smallpox driving people to do the right thing. Then he brought up COVID as a comparison. That in my opinion is wrong.
Good, I'm glad we can all agree on that.
I mean, you did. You said that people under 60 had a less than 0% chance of dying from COVID. Look.
It just turned out that you couldn't tell the difference between less than 0 and less than 1, which was moderately amusing. I probably shouldn't pick on you for what seemed like an honest mistake in what probably isn't your first language. But you're expecting me to psychically interpret your intent from a two word response, so meh.
You might want to work on your English then, because if you quote someone saying "I'd love to think so, but here you are arguing against yourself. 770,000 people in my country have dropped dead in a very short period of time" and reply with "no, wrong" then the only reasonable way to read that is that you think that the statement that 770,000 people have dropped dead is somehow wrong. If you thought that the opinion that you were arguing against yourself was wrong, you'd just have quoted that and not the second sentence. That's context.
A statement I corrected.
Again, I pointed out I made a mistake before any of you pointed it out where I was wrong in my statement. A simple "less than zero does not mean what you think it means" response would have been enough to point out my error. Instead you guys went with playing games.
Yes, I know
I will work on my English.
I'm not trying to weasel out of anything. I have a disagreement about state enforced vaccine mandates. I am against that.
I'm confused.. When is it ok to compare COVID to a virus/disease? The Flu kills many people to but there is no vaccine mandate for the Flu. Is that a fair comparison?

You know that's being used for Covid prevention how?
