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

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.1 reply 1 retweet 10 likes -
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.

Yep. The frustrating thing is every time one points this out (which yeah I've been doing for months now because this started Nov/Dec!) someone says what about these other reasons/currents for vaccine hesitancy. YES, OF COURSE. That doesn't make this concern irrelevant or minor.

The other problem is pre-pandemic research only goes so far to understand/estimate dynamics in a new and so comprehensively different situation so the current polls are almost misleading (because of how polls are designed/conducted).

I've been talking with people on the ground, monitoring a variety of channels/conversations and... I think we've started off the wrong foot, for sure, and as we have seen with masks etc. screwing up early messaging isn't something one fixes easily by changing the message later.

there is no wrong reason to get these vaccines, and not fully acknowledging the full breadth of motivations is a mistake. same goes for reasons for hesitancy, it is not one thing, but this is an important one.
