55 Savushkina Street Poem by John Fairlamb

Vaccination isn't new
In centuries it's been a few
Lady Mary's pox vaccine
Constantinople 1717

These amazing remedies
Fight those deadly enemies
All that terrible disease
With death and disabilities

Since the greatest generation
People take their medication
Without corrupted hesitation-
Victims of disinformation

Trusting doctors with their lives
Sleeping soundly under knives
Anything to stay alive
Until this poison starts to thrive

Sadly though there has erupted
Duplicity that has disrupted
Trust tradition now corrupted
Life saving therapies obstructed

From the depths has emerged
A malignancy that's purged
Common sense from planet earth
Devoid of evidence and worth
