That's nothing, in our modern era stupidity can be brought to astonishingly high levels never before dreamed of. Even if we had a COVID-19 vaccine I would not be surprised if 30% of Trump voters would refuse to take it or let their children take it because they think... no that's not the right word,,, they believe it will cause autism.

 

So it would then effectively be a virus that takes out dumb people.

"We've seen just a skyrocketing autism rate. Some people are suspicious that it's connected to the vaccines. This person included. The science right now is inconclusive, but we have to research it." --Barack Obama, Pennsylvania Rally, April 21, 2008.
