      Another take - this would’ve only changed reluctance on the margins, given the underlying reasons for the hesitationhttps://twitter.com/DKThomp/status/1362780026551287810 …

      The media and public health community has really messed up vaccine messaging. We've badly reported on the vaccines' effectiveness, and emphasized how post-vax behavior shouldn't change rather than explain how the post-vax world will change. And we're paying the price—> https://twitter.com/DLeonhardt/status/1362768083899793413 …

      General mistrust of authorities, lax reining in of antivax propaganda, and more specific mistrust of medical community from marginalized communities come to mind as some

      those are great ones. i think some of these are at least somewhat sensitive to improvement to effective public health comms, but agree that not all are 100% sensitive to just "better messaging"

      Yea, it's hard to feel that the needle would move much in one winter alone. But more ppl got the flu vax this year than in recent past, so clearly some room for improvement. And either way, it's an indictment of the ppl in the room that things have gotten this bad to begin with

      Replying to @AlexMLeo @DKThomp and

      Agree vaccine hesitancy is complex, multi-causal and has multiple currents at the moment. Current polling sucks (because it's based on preconceived pre-pandemic understanding of hesitancy which isn't how you do these things). But disagree about the "margins" comment.

      Am writing longer. I don't think anyone, and definitely not @DLeonhardt is denying the access/equity parts (saying this because this happens on Twitter: make point X, get accused of ignoring point Y) but clearly, enthusiasm AND messaging/rules matter especially for younger crowd.

          Exactly. Access and equity are vital concerns. And part of equity and access is devising a public-health message that is clearer -- and more directionally accurate -- than the message so far. As you've written.

          Don’t want to risk getting intubated? Get the vax—it works great! That it is a glorious therapeutic, rather than full immunization, has gotten missed.
