Well, this shouldn't be a surprise... most of the anti-Covid vaccine propaganda hitting the innanet these days comes from a small group of antivaccine propagandists. They have a huge social media following. They have no actual scientific credibility. But because the vast majority of Amerians have received virtually no science education by the time they finish high school, our population is defenseless against these frauds.

The vast majority of the misinformation about the SARS-CoV2 vaccines we are being fed through social media and the popular press is coming from this small but very wealthy group of anti-vax propagandists. Make no mistake. The anti-vax business has become a multimillion dollar profit-making industry that a few people, like the dozen named miscreants in this article, are getting very rich from.

Unfortunately, there are many people who are buying into this pseudoscientific garbage who repeat it ad nauseum, including some well-known members on this here forum. I doubt they're getting rich by it, but they are certainly helping the Terrible Twelve make millions.

I posed this same question to DocRocket five weeks ago. He never responded.

There you went and did it! After 17,000+ posts where you were one of the most respected members here who everyone looked to for advice, you've ruined by one post. All the naysayers who get their information from no-name websites run out of basements, hate you now!

Have you gotten the COVID vaccine?

Anybody that thinks COVID-19 is a concern, is a fugking idiot.

Doctor or not.

That's all anybody needs to know.

Just like anyone who listens to or believes anything you post...

I got halfway through the article Doc linked and my bullshit meter was starting to redline. The author claims they are hawking the disinformation via, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Instagram.
They only venue on that list I visit is You Tube and I can tell you they heavily censor anything regarding covid and from what I hear so do the other social media types.

The anti-vaxer's make total sense if you can figure out a way to ignore the 3,429,383 deaths world wide.

I’m 50 years old. I’m 5’11 and I weighed in at 182 pounds this morning. I have no comorbidities and I take no drugs.

Assuming for the sake of argument that the Covid vaccine is as safe as any other vaccine, why should I take it? And more importantly why does anyone care if I do or not?

How dare you question the wisdom of the DoCocket.
