That’s the reason why antivaxxers also always vastly exaggerate the risks of vaccines. The purpose is to falsify the risk-benefit ratio to it seem that on balance craziness do more harm than good.

There is a definite ageist component to this, tied in with the co-morbidity crap they spout. If under 10s had been affected as the over 80s have been, the response would have been very different. Over 80? He was going to die soon anyway. :(
