The article puts the onus on public health officials and institutes to do a better job communicating and educating, not the unvaxxed who believe Covid is a real threat.
That is why the mandates help in getting the hesitant vaxxed, bc they aren't antivax, therefore not the loud ones on social media, nor the "Covid is hoax" crowd. This isn't a matter of conviction, just legitimate questions that weren't getting communicated.properly.or enough. Article cites lack of funding into public health education.
Like I don't think I need a shot bc of natural immunity. Clearly that concern is widespread and growing yet we aren't getting a clear message from our authorities or recognition even tho we can see other countries are more advanced in that regard.
But if I had no choice but to get vaxxed I'd do it bc I'm NOT antivax AND I don't wanna lose my income.
