Increasingly, vaccine hesitancy about political identity.
And antivaxx lies are becoming official policy.
These are deadly trends. We MUST fight on with good science and STRONG, clear, creative, and evidence-informed corrections! 💪

My 2025 hobby is helping my pals de-centre tech from their lives.
Acquire CDs, records, DVDs, paper books, reference books, magazines, dictionaries, etc. Go to the library!
