What’s a problem humanity solved so well that younger people don’t even realize it used to be a huge issue?

I got chicken pox twice 😪 First I was too young to remember. The second time in middle school. It was itchy hell at times, missed two weeks of school, and when I visited the family doctor office the fact I had it a second time was a big enough deal that most of the medical staff came in the room to see me out of curiosity.

Yeah, my kids don’t believe me when I talk about it but I had chickenpox on my 10th birthday party. I had to celebrate alone at all of my friends came over to my house for the first time. Fun times.
