I used to think that it was kind of good to train your immune system (kind of whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger). I no longer believe that.

Vaccines are a method of training your immune system…

Based upon their comment talking about vaccines being good, I'm assuming they mean catching something intentionally to train your body at a convenient time.

I remember 30 years ago kids used to be put together if one had chicken pox so the others could catch it to get it out of the way. Covid parties, etc.

This is now considered a bad move.
