Comments like this (and many others in this thread) are so indicative to me of the bubble a lot of tech people live in. I personally know several people who are extremely vulnerable to the coronavirus (by age, location, and preexisting medical conditions) who are refusing the vaccine based on the premise that it was designed somehow to kill/sterilize/control them. Spend some time sleuthing on Facebook and you'll find groups with tens of thousands of people with this kind of mindset. I think there's a tendency for people on HN in particular to downplay this phenomenon because it directly implicates big tech in a very big way-- social media is a veritable incubator for these ideas.
