With respect to Taliban killing off humanitarians, it doesn’t help that the CIA organized a fake vaccine drive to get Osama Bin Laden’s family DNA [0].

Update: I’m not sure why the sibling poster and I received downvotes: we both provided the same fact that a branch of the US government conducted their operations in such a way that harmed the perception of vaccines amongst groups of people in another countries. In both the anti-vaxx movement in some places in the West and this particular incident in Pakistan and Afghanistan, you have a similar kind of attribution error involving the concept of vaccination that led to action against actual vaccinations as a whole.
