- VagueMag 4y agoIt's almost like there's a barrage of "mildly anti-vaxx" news lately (where "anti-vaxx" is defined as anything short of asserting that the COVID shots are an unalloyed good and perfectly safe medical procedure which should be taken every 9 months by everyone 6 months of age or older).
