Antivax movement? Are you assuming everyone who was not interested in the COVID vaccine just plain doesn’t believe in vaccines?

  There is a difference in "not interested in receiving COVID vaccine" and fighting against vaccination in general, refusing to vaccinate children with mandatory shots like MMR or polio.

    Yes, there absolutely is a difference and the second group is incredibly small. I think it is important to make that distinction.

      It is not small. Have you heard that vaccines cause autism? It is a popular believe of antivaxxers. So popular that >25% of kids in London are not vaccinated. 1/4 is huge and could compromise herd immunity. > Only 74% of children under five in London have received both doses of the MMR vaccine – 9.1 points lower than in 2013–14.
