Joyce Chaplin @joycechaplin.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Please enjoy this shot of Elvis getting a polio shot backstage at the Ed Sullivan show as part of a pro-vaccination campaign in 1956, posted here today for no reason whatsoever 9891612591
David W. Rudlin @ruddrudd.bsky.social · 14/12/2024And Elvis has left the building. Bobby was right! Now I’ve got to find some of that heroin that’s good for studying while I drink my whale juice. 010
4gabriel.bsky.social @4gabriel.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Got my vaccine in elementary school -the whole class did. 000
Soodamoo @soodamoo.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Interesting in Britain Polio isn't a vaccine, it's a liquid 110
Elvis Remix Experience @joshwildfire.bsky.social · 15/12/2024 A true icon, even in health awareness! 020
𝐹𝓁𝑜𝓌𝑒𝓇 𝒢𝓇𝑒𝓂𝓁𝒾𝓃 @gurrengin.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Peeps in the comments saying he died. Yes…on the crapper…after living up the vices of a rockstar 120
Johann S 🇨🇮🇺🇦 ⬅️ @johannshiel.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Did Elvis have polio on the Ed Sullivan show? Is that why they only filmed him from the waist up? #Conspiracy 010
keepinitreal62.bsky.social @keepinitreal62.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I thought polio “vaccination” was actually a sugar cube? 100
Mark C. Amos @amos-family.com · 14/12/2024“Oh yeah? And what became of the three people in that photo?” “They’re all dead! Just goes to show, vaccines don’t prevent death…” - RFK 😬 0121
Tania Galloni 🌻 @taniagalloni.bsky.social · 14/12/2024And that, friends, is why Elvis is still alive. 020
Techietype @techietype.bsky.social · 14/12/2024To be fair, one of the initial batches of the Salk Vaccine actually infected people with polio. Fortunately, it was a saner time, the problem was identified and fixed, saving many millions of people from getting the dreaded disease. Everything in medicine carries at least some risk. 000
Justavoice 🇨🇦 @justavoice.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Make America Vaccinate Again! I love this photo 💕 000
Douglas @dglancaster.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Ya know, my father had polio. I didn't, and neither did my three sisters. Must be some strange scientific explanation for that - maybe it skips a generation. 010
Scott Sandage @scottsandage.bsky.social · 13/12/2024A little less conversation, a little more vaxin! 2340
nick evans @evn0.bsky.social · 14/12/2024No No No. Fake news. That’s a MAGA tattoo he’s getting, obviously 010
Jenn Of Ark @jennofark.bsky.social · 13/12/2024And then, just a short 21 years later, the vaccine finally took him out while he was sitting on the can. 010
Kvetch & Release 🎣 @kvetchrelease.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Allan Sherman voice (to the tune of Love Me Tender): 🎶 Every time you take vaccine, Take it orally. As you know the other way, Is more painfully. 🎶 000
jonjonjj.bsky.social @jonjonjj.bsky.social · 14/12/2024and the adverse reaction to this very vaccine took his life 22 years later 100
jolly72a.bsky.social @jolly72a.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Every time I hear an antivaxer speak I think of this. 1101
Wendy Gassaway @wendygassaway.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I'm loving the delighted smile of the woman who got to support Elvis's elbow. Very important job. Glad she could be there for him. 151
Isolde @isolde789.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Then Elvis had weight problems and then he died in 1977. Coincidence? I think not. 😀 250
Infection Intersection @dahliaphilipsmd.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Polio was almost history—so why is it making a comeback? 🤔 From groundbreaking vaccines to challenges in conflict zones, here’s what you need to know (and why it matters). 💉🔥 Read on: infectionintersection.blogspot.com/2024/12/the-...infectionintersection.blogspot.comThe Polio Vaccine Debate: Lessons from History and Challenges AheadIn recent years, vaccine skepticism has gained significant traction, with figures like Aaron Siri challenging the safety and necessity of va... 020
Respect4Life @springhappy.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I am old enough to remember the fear of getting polio. I was a child when the vaccine came. My parents made sure the family was vaccinated asap and we got all the boosters. The last one was a drop of liquid on a sugar cube. 010
JCBrinck @jcbrinck.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I was in K. We ate sugar cubes. Lined up. I don’t believe parent permission was a thing 080
John R.R. Owens 🩸🦷🗽🥑❤️🔥⛓️ @jrro.bsky.social · 15/12/2024To be fair, he is dead now. Check mate atheists. 010
Timothy Brett @timothybrett.bsky.social · 18/12/2024MAGA conspiracy be like...OMG, 😱 Elvis got a Polio vaccine and now he's dead! 🤣 000
derek @derek.bsky.social · 13/12/2024“I hope that the renewed drive this spring and summer to provide vaccination for all Americans, and particularly those who are young, will have the wholehearted support of every parent in America.“ - John F.

Werewolf Bar Kochba @dickius.bsky.social · 14/12/2024he lived to the ripe old age of 42. I don’t think this is making the point you’re trying to make. 100

David van Duin @davidvanduin.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Suggested alt text: New York City Commissioner of Health Leona Baumgartner, right, holds the arm of person who sings songs as Assistant Commissioner Harold Fuerst administers the polio vaccine 1211
Jon @jontafkasi.bsky.social · 15/12/2024He was born in 1935. I'm sure this is just a coincidence. 000
spookybutkind.bsky.social @spookybutkind.bsky.social · 13/12/2024And twenty years later he died. Coincidence!? 2200
chichi60 @chichi60.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Yes, spread this around if you are on Satan's platform 000

Chris M. Barkley (He/Him) @cmzhang42.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Here are MORE photos of Elvis Presley getting his polio vaccine in October 1956... images.app.goo.gl/zxV45bjh1RNV...images.app.goo.glGoogle Image Result for https://www.elvispresleymusic.com.au/pictures/img/elvis/50s/56/1956-october-28-polio-shot-6.jpg 030
Chris M. Barkley (He/Him) @cmzhang42.bsky.social · 13/12/2024SHARED!!!!! Also; I was born in 1956 and my loving parents MADE SURE I was among the first kids to receive the polio vaccine...😀💯🎯🌞 1160
Dirk Wright @dirk11w.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Most vaccines work every well but they are a primitive way to get immunity. 000
ian1045.bsky.social @ian1045.bsky.social · 14/12/2024I’m old enough to remember children struck down with polio and, consequently, spending the rest of their lives in callipers. I remember my parents Joy when I was vaccinated. 010
Mammau @mammau.bsky.social · 14/12/2024The BoomerMagas will remember that photo and know it to be true. The ones that need to know, the ones with young kids, already sucked into the Q hole of muckLies, susceptible to KennedyLore another vaxxerNonsense, will not. 000
David M. Perry @lollardfish.bsky.social · 13/12/2024I love that story. I've used it so many times in various pro-vaccine writing. 1111
Fred Huddlestun @fhuddlestun.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Well, Elvis wound up dying years later so does that mean the vaccine wasn't safe? Asking for some deranged politician. 080
Clowder Concierge @antman013.bsky.social · 14/12/2024"Yes, and just a short 21 years later, he #diedsuddenly on the toilet in Graceland." RFK Jr., or his lawyer, probably. 020
Greg Chernack, CEO, Four Seasons Total Landscaping @gchernack.bsky.social · 14/12/2024And 21 years later, he died. I rest my case. 0110
Capybee @trigonabee.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Why would I care that a pedo racist is getting a vaccine? 🙄 100
BBJRan8 @bbjran8.bsky.social · 19/12/2024I watched the Ed Sullivan Show and I got one of the first vaccines and I’m still here…no polio. So sorry for the ones that had it. 000
tortelvishimself.bsky.social @tortelvishimself.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Elvis died shortly (21 years) after getting this vaccine. 050
Wayne The Seine @waynetheseine.bsky.social · 08/01/2025That was back in the day of glass syringes, dull, dull, dull, dull needles. I think they sharpened them on concrete. Anyone fearing a shot today is a pussy. 000
Lazer Princess @thelazerprincess.bsky.social · 15/12/2024Just not sure what the intent is: to show racists arent all anti-vax? An appeal to cool that supercedes the fraudulently heroic image of some guy from mississippi who built a fortune off the creativity of others and died bloated on the toilet? The big bopper never got vacinnated? 110
tonyellis55.bsky.social @tonyellis55.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Mine came in a sugar cube. I had classmates who'd suffered polio when younger, some badly affected, others less so. What I don't remember is whether there were idiots trying to undermine the campaign. I imagine so... 020
Max Wurr @maxwurr.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Polio vaccines make you get fat and die in the toilet, clearly. 020
WITCHY STARFISH @itchystarfish.bsky.social · 14/12/2024Skinny sexy elvis gets shot. Fat sweaty elvis dies. COINCIDENCE????????? 000
