But as a medical humanities researcher studying how groups that embrace vaccine hesitancy craft their message, I’ve learned that part of why vaccine hesitancy is so hard to combat is how these groups use storytelling to spread their views. This partly relates to a misunderstanding about vaccine hesitancy: It’s not that people don’t understand science or don’t have access to high-quality medical information. What makes these stories the secret weapons of vaccine hesitancy is that they often are not actually about vaccines at all. Back in the day, the swine flu vaccine killed about 3 people and they pulled it immediately. by 18 posted onby trebb (So many fools - so little time...)To: trebbBut people are “skeptical” if they dare question The Expertz.
