Anti-intellectualism in American Life by Richard Hofstedter might be relevant?[edit]

I think Hofstedter’s book is a good source for your background section. Fonzie (talk) 02:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Oh, that certainly seems like an interesting book. Although I feel it'd be a bit redundant to dive into anti-intellectualism in the United States outright; I plan to focus on the vaccination program itself and debunk the myths which were propounded against the anthrax vaccine.--April Chat? 02:27, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
...Not that the book isn't germane to this topic of course. Anti-intellectualism is one of the major reasons why vaccine scares occur.--April Chat? 02:30, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

True, it is of tangential relevance. This is more relevant Antivirulent Anthrax vaccine, where the benefits of antivirulent uncapsulated-variants for laboratory research are examined. Uncapsulated variants sporulate readily providing the opportunity for studying aerosol-mediated infection in animals such as Guinean pigs or rabbits. Fonzie (talk) 02:48, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

How come everybody I engage with ends up being a ban evader...--April Chat? 05:05, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Heading text[edit]

I so badly want to break character and just say "the only problem with this mandate was that the vaccine wasn't mandatory for all civilians as well."--April Chat? 02:06, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
