Students lining up for polio vaccine shots at Kit Carson Elementary School in San Diego, 1955

 

1955, Students lining up for polio vaccine shots at Kit Carson Elementary School in San Diego.  Thank you to Lynn Thompson.  

On the polio vaccine, see here.

The following pics come from the Texas Medical Center Library, TMC Library. 

The following series is from the Victory Over Polio campaign, which set out to mass-vaccinate Harris County residents in July 1962.  It was sponsored by the Junior Chamber of Commerce [Jaycees] and the Harris County Medical Society.

All of these are from Institutional Collection 004, the Harris County Medical Society, box 1 of the “Victory Over Polio” series.

1962, Two bureaucrats wrapped in stats printed out from the computer with a running tally of numbers scrolled on the blackboard.  How innocent.  These two don't have a clue as to the contents of the vaccine.  These would be your official liars.  And TMC Library fails to identify them.  Talk about CYA.

1962, Ah, yes, bring in your local celebrity athlete [from Houston's Colt 45s] to really sell the poisons to the community.  Not even a number on his jersey to identify him.  Perfect.

1962, This scene here is remarkable in that it takes a public health concern and turns it into a party to normalize illness.  Nice.  

1962, Vaccination stations were set up at area schools.

You can read more about him here.  When the God complex turns demonic.

A San Diego abortionist who was caught on video last year threatening a pro-life activist with scissors in the midst of a demonic rant, has agreed to surrender his medical license on December 31, 2017.

Robert John Santella, 74, was featured in a YouTube video as he hissed and threatened a pro-life activist with scissors while admitting he had a “darkened heart.”

The California Medical Board (CMB) sought disciplinary action against Santella for his unprofessional conduct in an amended accusation filed on July 17, 2017. The accusation expressed shock that Santella growled at the pro-life activist and admitted he loved killing babies in a guttural voice even while other patients — and at least one child — entered the abortion facility behind him.

After video of the incident went viral, Santella was fired by a hospital group where he was affiliated, and later, by the FPA Women’s Health abortion facility. Undeterred, Santella resumed his abortion business at his long-time College-area private practice office.

Santella was also charged by the CMB for wrongly prescribing controlled substances to six patients, while failing to perform a physical examination or document reasons for the prescriptions in medical records. He also ignored test results and symptoms of other serious conditions.

When asked why he prescribed opioids to one patient with a history of substance abuse, he callously replied, “[I]n desperation I would refill her medications somehow just to get rid of her.”

Robert Santella died in 2019.
