For example, based on the data contained in the VAERS system there have been, at most (including coincidences, etc.), 338 deaths in the U.S. since 1990 attributable to all of the diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus vaccines combined. In contrast, in 1921 ALONE, diphtheria ALONE was responsible for more than 15,000 deaths. For those out there who don’t know how death from diphtheria occurs, the diphtheria toxin results in a “pseudomembrane” slowly growing over the trachea, eventually suffocating the victim. Parents and/or family members watched this happen over 15,000 times in 1921. I’m sorry, Rand Paul IS an idiot.
