| Topic | Anti-vaxxers are now officially lagging behind the Taliban in progress. |

I think it's safe and effective, but it is different in meaningful ways. Saying all vaccines are universally equivalent is intellectually dishonest IMO. For example, you could take a person who says "I won't get any vaccine that hasn't yet got 5 years of safety data". You may argue that person is taking a stupid stance, but if that is their stance, the COVID vaccine would be different. That combined with the mRNA mechanism of action between it and most vaccines make them different. IMO we do a lot better acknowledging the difference than pretending it's identical. When we lie and say 2 different things are identical, people can tell, and they instantly become more distrusting of us for lying. IMO the best bet is the truth, "It's new, it's different in some ways, but it's consistently shown to be safe and effective" and then point to the relevant data. --- "joe is attractive and quite the brilliant poster" - Seiichi Omori https://imgur.com/TheGsZ9 ...
