I don't know what you mean by burning down hospitals and rebuilding them.

You can't find that in the media or almost not on the internet either. I read about it in an older book in the library of my home town +- 30 years ago. The book described, with black and white photos how several countries in Europe after a pox outbreak the hospital was burned down and rebuilt. I guess that is one fact they managed to memory hole almost successfully. Small town libraries tend to give away their old books so it is probably not there anymore but I remember it clearly.

I suppose it's their way of "decontaminating" the area? Stuff like the polio shot are already known to be a bungle.

Indeed this was for outbreaks in the 1950ies when they already had the pox shot. But they had to burn hospitals to decontaminate them since that shot too didn't work so well and could be dangerous.

The burning feels very unnecessary, as normal decontamination would work. I wonder if it were largely done for insurance if it is the case.

I think it was due to the Golden 1950ies. Then rebuilding an old hospital was seen as an opportunity they could easily afford. They could get rid of the old hospital, and be completely sure to decontaminate the place at once. That is the attitude we need to eradicate diseases, but no one thinks like that anymore.

Do you have any resources on the topic, book or otherwise?

I could not find anything else yet. So you are entitled to be skeptical.

I will try again but it might take a while.
Meanwhile it seems like the left is running to Bluesky. I made an account but it is a weird experience.

I've never heard of Bluesky. Is it a new platform, or just one that was obscure?

It suddenly exploded with wokies fleeing X. You can find it as an app for Android. They just published the Bluesky AT protocol but it is both overcomplicated, insecure, and not really distributed. And easy to scrape by AI, also keeps track of historic changes so you cannot actually delete anything yourself, only admins can, etc. Seems designed to keep them in control whilst giving the illusion of being decentralized. I would rather recommend the nostr protocol en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nostr . A lot simpler and really distributed.

I must be out of the loop. I didn't know wokies were fleeing X. I thought they still had a stranglehold on it, but just a more socially acceptable one. It fits with the narrative. They realize woke isn't catching on like they'd like. So, they've been pulling back a little as of late to try to ease people into it/go back to the drawing board.

Nostr is a protocol, not a service. It is comparable to signed email. It has many extensions which make it useful. It depends a bit on the nostr clients and relays you are using though. The weakest point is that you cannot loose your nkey without trouble.
The Bluesky people have also just collected a lot of money so perhaps it is just a grift. Most of th wokies who said they're going to Bluesky are still on X as well.
