Thank god it's still that low (< 1000 people it looks like). And I love that we have so much data available these days. Back when I was really suffering due to an autoimmune condition, I found that following various data-fed sources, for example one of the U.S. Navy's Twitter accounts which shared data on sick sailors, helped me make some pretty educated guesses as to what the sickness-of-the-month was. Edit: Found it--example at [0]. Being a part of the autoimmune community, I can also see why there's so much push-back against vaccines. These people (that is, those who object due to vaccine fears) aren't referential thinkers who are comfortable with broad social measurement (objective science). They are often own-ideas driven, analytical people (NIH, as we say in tech) who have yet to cross the subject-object gap in their own methodology, but they have also typically made some notable personal progress as self-reported. The sad part is that people like this don't realize that decision-making regarding their children is exactly why & where you'd want to apply more objective thinking ("they are not me" is where social measurement / objective science can shine some light). Anyway, were I to try to combat this kind of thinking, I wouldn't do it via emphasis on science. These are people who are conditioned to batten down the hatches when confronted by science. I'd do it via social trend science, by testing words, phrases, personalities and social clearinghouses (be it Youtube channels, or whatever) that show possible social traction. Fringe social groups are notoriously weak against such "social technologies," which can quickly cause fracture. No numbers, no data, etc. Get that stuff out of here; this is the completely wrong psychological match for such an approach. 0. https://twitter.com/NH_RC/status/1112816699227635712 https://twitter.com/NH_RC/status/1112816699227635712
