so if theres a mythical person who did the research and came to the conclusion that they might want to wait for more data before getting the shot, and also take all the other precautions like mask wearing and avoiding crowds while waiting, then I wouldn't call that person dumb
It would take a very long time to elaborate, because I think it is a statement that comes entirely from the core misunderstanding about how humans "know" things, mostly driven by hubris, that most people today take to be a given.

It also includes things that are not about the actual issue. The alternative to "just trust an expert" is not "hear all sides", unless you think humans work differently than they actually do, which the author (and most people on Twitter) clearly think.

So the shortest answer I can give is: I could write an entire book on why this answer is wrong; it is also why I have trouble talking to people on Twitter, because I think most people are wrong about most things for the same reasons; I don't know why I bother mentioning it :)
