Non-sense. Clean water, enough nourishing foods and comfortable homes combined with efficient sewage systems were the main reasons for a vast improvement in health on the whole.
You need to evaluate your relationship with the natural world. That is scary.
Slightly massive flaw on your argument is in developed countries where vaccinations have been stopped for certain diseases, like pertussis, the incidence of the disease went up massively despite good sanitation and improved health.You need to evaluate your relationship with the natural world. That is scary.

And there are plenty of places where sanitation has not greatly improved yet vaccination programmes are still successful.
And you can see the correlation in the states for example between areas with a percentage of cruel parents who choose not to vaccinate their children and incidences of dieseases they would otherwise be vaccinated against. durbster said:

If your natural world is so good for us, why did we need to do those things?You need to evaluate your relationship with the natural world. That is scary.
Cleaning up water means removing naturally occurring harmful material from it. Improving nourishment is learning what natural foods are harmful. Improved hygiene means killing or preventing naturally forming bacteria, and improving sewage means getting our natural turds as far away from us as possible, because they're full of naturally occurring stuff that makes us incredibly sick.

He's not the one getting wound up and being offensive. Any clearer?
Arguing against vaccinating children is pretty offensive to me. popeyewhite said:
It may be, it may not, Part of being an adult is being able to accept other people may have different opinions to your own and it's actually OK not to belittle/swear at them/insult them.

No, I do t think so. Flat Earthers: perfectly acceptable to belittle/swear at them/insult them. Ditto: David Icke and his believers. Freemen of the Land. EDL losers. Paedophilia advocates. And so the list goes on. Because these beliefs are based either on utter garbage nonsense thinking or are plain offensive.
If you ran a business and someone came to you and said that in his opinion bananas were legal tender and three bananas made a dozen, you would belittle/insult/swear at them. Rightly so.
I have noticed a distinct trend amongst the couple of Anti-Vaxxers who have appeared in this thread.
They are incredibly selective about answering direct questions.
When they do answer a question it is either with another question, or with some gibberish that wasn’t actually asked.
It’s all classic conspiracy theory/tinfoil hat nutter type stuff.
