Testing the vaccine wasn’t easy. One larvae-producing site in Florida was hit by a hurricane, “another was taken out by bears,” Swift said.

Scientific proof that vaccines cause hurricanes and bears.


This is the first time I've heard of a vaccine against bacterial infection.

Never heard of vaccines against bacteria? Meningococcal vaccine? Diptheria vaccine? Tetanus vaccine? Typhoid vaccine? Surely heard of one of these

Always associated vaccines with viruses. I guess i never really thought about it.

It's the same immune system that fights those off, too. There are many vaccines for bacterial infections, like cholera and typhoid. Intracellular bacteria don't have many vaccines, but they exist too. I'm no doc though so if you want to know more, it'd be worth a search.

The bears can smell the vaccinations.

You hear that, Ron? Bears. Now you're putting the whole hive at risk!

First there were sharknados, now there are bearicanes. Where will it end?
