If vaccines were given in Pop-Tart form there wouldn't be an antivax movement.

They used to do sugar cubes saturated with vaccine for polio, we should go back to that. I know there are reasons they stopped using it, but Americans are definitely more likely to eat sugar than get vaccinated, so let’s just call it a wash in terms of health risks.

There's this reminded of a bit by Ari Matti where he goes "you people put sugar on your medicine. You know the rest of the world doesn't do that?"

Maybe vaccines laced with sugar is the answer America needs.
