    And Jehovah God formeth the man -- dust from the ground, and breatheth into his nostrils breath of life, and the man becometh a living creature. Gen 2:7 YLT
    and one in a certain place did testify fully, saying, 'What is man, that Thou art mindful of him, or a son of man, that Thou dost look after him?
    Thou didst make him some little less than messengers, Heb 2:6 and From Heb 2:7 YLT

    What is the purpose of vaccines?

    Sorry, I don't understand, either the title of the thread (Relative to what?) or the connection between the bible verses you quoted and the question about the purpose of vaccines.

    Why does the man God created need vaccines?

    Thou shall surely die.

    What was the Spanish Flu going do to the man God created that made a vaccine necessary?
    What was polio going to do to the man God created that made a vaccine necessary?

    And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

    Are men getting smarter or are they communicating better?

    nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do

    Whose has the next move?

    This time it appears to me, man, created the virus for the purpose of, the man created, "vaccine," via MNRA.

    Not real sure which came first.

    We will give you a free donut if you will take the, "vaccine".

    Ah! Now I see what you mean, that we need vaccines (and indeed other medical procedures) as a result of sin/the Fall. Thanks!

    Genesis 1:26 ESV
    “And let them have dominion … over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

    Big picture: vaccines are not the problem. Mankind is the problem.
    The polio vaccine was a blessing to the children of the world in the 1950’s.

    When a fallen, broken, sin-prone mankind is given the authority to control the earth, the results are predictable.

    Today’s culture is far more mobile, making the probability of a viral pandemic great.
    The response to such an outbreak has to be quick in order to save lives.
    In the case of the Covid vaccine, the response was quick, but quickly changing characteristics of the virus made the vaccine less effective.

    From Heb 2:8 But now we see not yet all things put under him.

    What about the characteristics of the, "vaccine"?
