No, the anti-vax lobby are luddite kooks.
Please explain how NOT taking simple and reasonable safety precautions saves anyone?

Anti-vaxxers keep telling us about all the purported deaths and issues from vaccinations.
Turn-about is fair play.
You really think this is the same?
Anti vaxxers have been giving a warning because they care. Some might be blowing the percentages out of proportion with the vaccine injuries but there are official figures to support that there are injuries, albeit rare. Really, who wouldn't want to be warned, it's the basis of informed consent.
What these pro vaxxers are is hateful and dangerous. I've seen it growing everywhere around me, online and in real life which is why some people have hinted at a slippery slope like past events.
You are pro vax but have at least held civil disputes with us, without gloating at anyone getting ill. That's honorable. These others are beyond irrational.

The vast majority of people that actually died from covid not with covid had a slew of problems from obesity to diabetes, to cancer and a long list of others.
Those co-morbidities had far more to do with the deaths than vaxed or unvaxed, the virus was just the tipping point.
Why do I feel comfortable stating that, the growing list of countries dumping mandates, or vax cards.
Also come on you are smarter than that, maybe the fact you are a small island with a limited number of people coming through from outside plays a much bigger part in the low numbers than the vax.

They do it on both sides. The Right rejoices when a vaccinated person dies. Or any Dem dying for that matter. Oh, how soon we forget the lovely things said about RBG. The left rejoices in the deaths of the non vaxed. Probably because they know that's one less Trump vote.
If BOTH sides do it, OH WELL. Pointing the finger looks a bit hypocritical, because, guess what, it is.
