Smallpox Memes

Historical mic drop moment! Edward Jenner really said "fight fire with fire" when he pioneered vaccination by using cowpox to build immunity against smallpox. The meme brilliantly compares Jenner's revolutionary medical approach to Thanos's infamous line "I used the stones to destroy the stones." Except instead of wiping out half the universe, Jenner basically eradicated a disease that had been terrorizing humanity for centuries. Using a milder virus to defeat a deadly one? Pure 18th-century genius that changed medicine forever. The original "hacker" who found the ultimate exploit in the immune system!

The only thing more brutal than Darth Maul's lightsaber skills? Vaccination campaigns against smallpox. This meme beautifully captures humanity's greatest medical flex - the complete eradication of a disease that killed over 300 million people in the 20th century alone. Smallpox begged for mercy, but scientists showed up with Edward Jenner's vaccination technique and basically Force-lightning'd it into extinction by 1980. Talk about the ultimate "I am the Senate" moment for medical science. Next up on the chopping block: polio. Science doesn't negotiate with pathogens.
