Gustave, for you and your kind...
"It's a free world. You don't have to like Jews if you don't want to, but if you are going to be an anti-Semite, you should be consistent and turn your back on the medical advances that Jews made possible." I am talking about the vaccine for hepatitis, discovered by Baruch Blumberg, the Wasserman test for syphilis, developed by August Von Wasserman, and the first effective drug to fight syphilis developed by Paul Ehrlich. Bela Schick developed the diagnostic skin test for diptheria. Insulin would not have been discovered if Oskar Minkowski had not demonstrated the link between diabetes and the pancreas. It was Burrill Crohn who identified this disease that bears his name. Alfred Hess discovered that vitamin C could cure scurvy. Casimir Funk was the first to use vitamin B to treat beri-beri. Jonas Salk developed the first polio vaccine, and later Albert Sabin developed the oral version. Continuing with the quote, "humanitarianism requires that we offer these gifts to all the people of the world, regardless of race, color, or creed. So, the anti-Semites who don't want to accept these gifts can go ahead and turn them down, but I'm warning them, you aren't going to feel so good"
