I'm too tired to be mad about this or the changes that will happen to remind people of how important science is...
But I can always see in my minds eye, some future leader saying. "There's no way we could have known."
And that keeps me at a simmer.

Which ones were eradicated & which ones were decimated? Getting rid of 10% of a disease doesn't sound super effective.
You have to add "Thoughts &" for the prayers to be effective
As per science, prayer (or anything "metaphysical" can't be measured, as it has no physics or physical evidence)....
....so effects of prayer can't be measured/known. I guess that means it's theoretical, unprovable.

Jokes in you we prayed for societal collaboration and progress. Profit and capitalism seems like a major side effect though 😵💫
You're only considering the diseases that God didn't prevent from existing in the first place. You can't expect him to stop all the potential diseases, can you?? He's not Superman!
Actually, I was praying for them to finish the vaccine. You're welcome.
Prayer heals disease by editing history. Of course you're not aware of all the diseases it has cured!
Prayer and the CIA, however, are gtrwat at spreading them and undermining these efforts.
