People higher in neuroticism & agreeableness favour lockdowns, mask mandates & mass vaccination.
People lower in neuroticism & agreeableness do not.

This is also why both 'sides' piss each other off.
Side A views the other as selfish, uncaring & reckless. Unwilling to sacrifice personal autonomy for 'the greater good'.
Side B views the other as sheepish, cowardly, and naively compliant. Willing to sacrifice our freedom.
