    I will argue this is not the problem. It’s that vaccines were too good in their effectiveness. A victim of their own success.

    The problem is not and has not been science. The problem is messaging.

    This is the same reason why anti-vax is so popular, you think that’s about science? It’s idiots like RFK Jr and Trump have the ear of people. It’s all messaging folks.

    A person is smart. People are dumb.

      I have to agree about the too good in their effectiveness. To get to a point where people are just like, “Nah, it ain’t a big deal” is built atop the millions of dead.
