        Full disclosure - stole this shamelessly from a friend on Facebook, who I am fairly certain nicked it from another place entirely. To whoever created the meme, I salute you

        Also note: anti-vaccine activists =/= vaccine hesitant people, there are absolutely valid worries about getting a COVID-19 vaccination which I wrote about here:https://coronavirus.medium.com/vaccine-hesitancy-makes-sense-9a74e3a5eca7 …

        Fire extinguisher foam is not injected into a person. I am NOT an anti-vaxxer but AM very hesitant to accept the sub-standard #AstraZeneca vaccine. I don't appreciate trivialising valid concerns

        Not fully anti-vax but you got me SO MESSED UP thinking I’m getting a “vaccine” that was constructed in less than a year. I don’t need it and most people don’t. Not to mention Moderna has never been successful. I’m good.

        The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are vaccines, built on 15 years of mRNA vaccine development and the lessons from SARS and MERS vaccine development, they have passed preclinical, phase I, II and III clinical trials and work extraordinarily well, there is always AZ and JJ vaccines.
