minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink17•10 months agoThis is awakening a sort of core memory in me. It was some vaccination wasn’t it?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink19•edit-210 months agoNo. People who are older than that have a smallpox vaccination scar on the shoulde from the vaccines in 1958-1977. The arm thing is just an urban myth and plays on confirmation bias. Almost everyone have a freckle there for no good reason. However… Mexicans actually have a tuberculosis vaccination mark on the arm, but most other countries didn’t need to vaccinate against that. That’s how these myths spread, part truth+loads of bullshit.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•10 months agoNone of us 1971 kids got the smallpox scar. Discontinued in 1972 (US). Whew.
minus-squarer00tylinkfedilink5•10 months agoNah, I got the BCG back in the 80s, and I’m in the UK. So definitely not just Mexicans. That is one nasty vaccination, by the way. Do not recommend the experience.
