During what time in history would you like to live?
Growing up, I’d always heard the terms BC and AD used. I now prefer the more secular alternatives: BCE and CE. In BCE times, people simply went about their lives, trying to eke out a living from one day to the next. Parents did everything they could to protect and provide for their children, unaware a history altering change was imminent. The breadth of medicine we have today—especially that of vaccines—was not available back then. An epidemic could erupt in a community, rapidly spreading far and wide. Today we have proven, widely accepted vaccines made with mRNA technology. COVID vaccines were not the first mRNA vaccines to be manufactured, however. An mRNA vaccine was used for both Rabies and Ebola in the BCE (Before COVID Epidemic) times. But if I were to choose to live my life in any time in history, it would certainly be in today’s CE (COVID Endemic) times. The more vaccine tech we have at the ready, the better chance we can quickly respond to the next epidemic that threatens to turn modern civilization into the likes of a BCE (Before Common Era) wasteland.
