Used them. Dumped them.

I got a polio vaccine and stayed away from people who had the polio and I totally didn't get any polio.
Obviously polio isn't nearly as deadly as we thought it was.
56,000 dead. Trump was right.
He IS a wartime president.
Probably should have mentioned that war was going to be another Vietnam though.
