An iron lung is a type of negative pressure ventilator (NPV), a mechanical respirator which encloses most of a person's body, and varies the air pressure in the enclosed space, to stimulate breathing.[1][2][3][4] It assists breathing when muscle control is lost, or the work of breathing exceeds the person's ability.[1] Need for this treatment may result from diseases including polio and botulism and certain poisons (for example, barbiturates, tubocurarine).

People tend to think they'd be okay if they went back in time. They forget how poor medicine was compared to what we have today.
Polio, smallpox, and even the flu was putting people in check left right and center. People would have 5 kids and be considered lucky if all 5 lived to adulthood.
shyt was real in the field, breh.


People only care about vaccines when the reality of life with the disease is scarier than the conspiracy theories. If COVID was permanently paralyzing people, there would have been no debate. you notice nobody argues about rabies vaccine because rabies will kill you every time without it.There would be more people like that if the idiots from today were around back then protesting vaccines

A lot of coli brehs would’ve been lynched considering the shyt they post.I would have killed myself 70 years ago![]()
Damn….just suffocate me and take me out my misery, fukk that.![]()
