How did the Nazis feel about vaccines?

by westcoastlawboy

I feel like I could see them having been very into vaccines or being really against them. On the one hand they were super authoritarian were very into “science” so I could see them viewing vaccines as a great advancement that would create a bigger and stronger German nation. In the other hand a lot of what they did was obviously just flat out pseudoscience and it seems like at least a segment of the Nazi leadership was kind of into, for a lack of a better term, “new age” stuff like being neopagans and having a sort of connection with nature, hence the “blood and soil” and seeing Germans as having a connection with nature. So did the Nazis tend to take sides on the positives or “negatives” of vaccines? Or could they have had mixed views amongst themselves on the topic?
