Vaccines are a little counter-intuitive - as the object is to get your immune system going by introducing a sort of invasive thing that's less dangerous than a deadly contagion !
But where the line is - what they're calling Theories don't even rise to the level of Hypothesis. You can have your own opinions - but you can't make your own facts.
& the thing about a contagion is - it ain't just about you chumboy. It's all of us.

Hmmm, not sure about Shock G co-writing of "Mama Said Knock You Out", no official writing credits on the label (only LL and Marley Marl).

Maybe that's from the Sly and the Family Stone drum sample with the tell-tale hit used in "Humpty Dance", which many other records sampled later on, including "Mama Said Knock You Out".
