The US media reporting on vaccination has been pretty garbage to be honest. For example, I notice the New York Times was complaining the other day about people refusing to get a vaccine even though they'd caught Covid - rationally speaking, someone who's already been infected is going to get much less benefit from vaccination (maybe even none?) and is at higher risk from side effects, their logic was completely backwards and they hadn't even noticed because how the media talks about vaccination mostly seems to be about ideology over all else. I also remember complaints about someone thinking they didn't need the vaccine because they always wore a mask when leaving the house; gee, maybe that has something to do with the articles last year actively pushing the idea that masks were more effective than vaccines would be? Which the media has of course quietly forgotten.
