This is the same thing Trumpies and antivaxxers did when those Texas @TheDemocrats legislators who left the state to deny @GOP a quorum in the legislature to pass a voter suppression law caught #COVID19. Very uncool. Fellow, pro-vaxxers, don't do this.

When I refer to antivaxxers, I'm referring to the likes of
@RobertKennedyJr, Andrew Wakefield, and the various antivaccine propagandists who stoke vaccine hesitancy. Sometimes I even take people on "our side" to task for being too loose with the term "antivaxxer." -
Is there overlap? Of course, but I tend to reserve the term "antivaxxer" for those who actively spread antivaccine disinformation, protest against vaccine mandates, and/or (especially) make money spreading antivaccine disinformation.

Thank you; I believe it’s worth being explicit. *You* don’t make that leap, but it is tempting for many to make the leap that anyone unvaccinated (at this point) is beyond redemption.

I certainly don't do that, particularly given how vaccine hesitancy among many Blacks and other minorities, for example, is fueled by a history of institutional racism in medicine that makes their distrust of the medical profession very understandable.
