My own mum, who had each of her 3 children fully vaccinated and has had a 30+ year career in healthcare has now become a sceptic. Why? Because since my dad died, she's been with a guy who is deep in the conspiracies.I think one of the issues with social media is that the sheer numbers of posts pushing this sort of bollocks gets to us. Even if rationally we know its nonsense, constantly seeing it makes our brains legitimise it. And of course many of the tossers putting this out are outright obsessives, so their output us very, very large.
I'm not sure why the scepticism is largely aimed at vaccines? Where do people draw the line? Paracetamol? Methotrexate? What about when some of the novel oligonucleotides begin to gain approval? Have these people seen the size of these antibody-drug conjugates? Imagine all the extra clandestine and nefarious things you can do with something orders of magnitude larger than small molecules!
