Honestly, I think the issue here is that you’re not American, so you don’t understand the current situation here. Vaccines have been free and readily available for a long time, and those who are holding out have an unusually high percentage of cray in them. Last I checked, polling indicated that about half of the people unvaccinated indicated that would never accept the vaccine, as compared to being in more of a “wait and see” mode. Meanwhile some states are starting to hit their highest death rates ever, and Covid is killing anti-vax politicians and celebrities at a constant rate. If rational arguments persuaded these people, they would have already been vaccinated.

Nice number, nice amp link. But ok I'll waste some more of my time checking your source for you. (edit: the comment was only a link at first.) > So far, they’ve treated 27 patients in the month of August. > The Alabama Poison Information Center at Children’s of Alabama has fielded 24 ivermectin exposure cases so far this year, of which 15 were related to COVID-19 prevention and treatment. It says there have been five other calls seeking information about ivermectin. Lol, yeah clearly a majority of the millions unvaccinated.

  Keep reading. > At least 70% of recent calls to the Mississippi Poison Control Center have been related to ingestion of livestock or animal formulations of ivermectin purchased at livestock supply centers, Mississippi Department of Health officials said. Again, these are people literally taking horse dewormer. We can debate the precise number, but you cannot reason with someone who decides that they trust tractor supply more than they trust their doctor and any relevant medical authority.

    70% of how many? Keep reading, it said iirc somewhere "for comparison, last year there were 6 calls".
