There seems to be people who are convinced getting infected is some sort of heroic effort, and vaccines are for the weak? I increasingly suspect this may be driven in some by fear of needles, which is exactly why letting people know this is a common condition is important.https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1468628813710041091 …

Boosters will definitely reduce the risk, and many vaccines are three-dose primary series. Likely this one is too. Maybe there will be annual boosters, like flu. Still, avoiding vaccination isn't like storming the beach at Normandy. Why is it valorized?https://twitter.com/LGFi0rnkELg0KDn/status/1468630674856890374 …

Because the pandemic isn't over, and we now have yet another variant. Resisting the ways to end the pandemic is big part of the problem. Again, avoiding vaccines isn't some heroic act. https://twitter.com/GeordieStory/status/1468631651982794756?s=20 …

"EARNED." Is this a version of how real man don't need to look at the map or ask for directions? The virus isn't a moral agent, nor does it live by Calvinist ethics and strictures. Vaccines strengthen immunity, and lessen chances of transmitting. Simple. https://twitter.com/NuclearNemesis/status/1468632712986697729 …

Replying to @zeynep
One could make a near-perfect analogy-sermon about the temporary pain of a vaccination/forsaking wordly pleasure being preferable to the (possibly eternal) damnation of a wild virus
