"Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 50s and 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone."

Back in 2016 I worked at the Digital Archive of Scottish Gaelic and my main job was digitising and re-transcribing texts to be put in a searchable database. One of the most interesting texts I handled was by Hugh Laing, a Gael who emigrated to Australia and wrote a book called "Gu Tìr Mo Luaidh"
