Curiosities t1_jbqhtfu wrote

My boyfriend's grandfather died back in early 2020 at around 100. He was a camp survivor and lost much of his family there. We met briefly, before he retired and moved, but it really does drive home how things are still within living history. At some point, his grandfather recorded his story for the Shoah Foundation.

With all of the antivax stuff in the news, it made me think of my teacher disabled by polio, and out of sight, out of mind, because no one under 40, basically, remembers what that looked like. So they are more susceptible to anti-science.
