I'm curious why are people down voting this?

  Because it names and opposes the forever lockdown solution preferred by the HackerNews hivemind.

  I don't know either, but there's a strong anti-vax vibe in this thread. For reasons that are somewhat unclear to me, France has one of the highest anti-vax sentiment rates in the developed world, so that can have something to do with it. https://www.connexionfrance.com/French-news/Covid-anti-vax-sentiment-rises-above-50-in-France-with-new-poll https://www.connexionfrance.com/French-news/Covid-anti-vax-s... My retort is, for those who don't like vaccines, if you don't want a vaccine what IS the solution to the problem of covid?

    Being skeptical of one particular vaccine does not make someone an antivaxer.

      But it's the most available one, since Pfizer's low on availability in the EU. Also, France, the country in the subject here, has a high vaccine skepticism rate (separate from Astra) ranging from 50-60 pct.. source being France24 report from December.
