The messaging of “if anti-vaxers think the vaccine is harmful, they have no idea how bad covid is” — & then proceeding to support zero mitigations & downplaying severity of infection — is precisely why we have so many anti-vaxers..
You literally couldn’t behave less trustworthy.

I’m seeing a lot of people sharing graphs comparing how dangerous Covid is compared to vax (correctly so) — but then having no issue with our current policies on Covid..
This is a massive mixed message that even the most “nuance takes” cannot untangle in any coherent way.

Telling the general public this virus should not be feared & is “the flu” — & “the pandemic is over”..
But then trying to convey the true gravity & devastation the virus has on the population to overcome vaccine skepticism & hesitancy **does not work**

If the vaccine was reducing #LongCovid & reinfections to negligible numbers this might work — but the vax only strategy has sacrificed so many lives — We are still getting devastating numbers of #LongCovid from healthy & vaxed (1 in 20 from latest variants.
What you combine a flawed & dishonest policy that is at odds with the science and health data available to the public — it is a perfect storm to sow conspiracy, doubt & distrust.
