Yup, all great points, though I'm a lot more skeptical that #1 and #3 can be addressed with better awareness.
The problem is that for every PSA from the government, message from a doctor, or conversation with a trusted friend or loved one, there's a hundred posts on <insert social media platform here> that are designed to appeal to folks looking for a reason not to take the vaccine. It's basically a fight against an at-scale, technology-assisted gish gallop.
Add in things like the primacy effect and it's incredibly difficult to deprogram people once they've internalized bad information.
