Considering the general population's reaction to the path forwards to tackle covid 19 and reasons, from what I observed, more often was the case whatever new at the time was initially poorly explained, and the manner and method would cause some difficulty for the average lay person to understand and comprehend to a satisfactory level, and even if better explained at a later point, IMO the average lay person was left feeling the people informing them were a bit inept and ... it would seem this study has mistook hostility and disdain as spitefulness.
I guess to some people hostility and spitefulness are the same thing, but to some like myself they can be two different things. As an example, digging a sharp deep enough pit and camouflaging it on the outside of a fence where some mongrel rouge feral cow breaks the weak spot down every second day, might seem to some like a spiteful method to finally capture the mongrel, where as I'd label it as merely motivated by hostility, and spiteful being along the lines of a tight grid of sharpened thin sticks left upright down the bottom of said pit. One thing is a hostile reaction, the latter includes the large dollop of meanness.
They also haven't greatly considered the role a superiority complex plays when someone (with a predisposition to the complex) is confronted with ideas they are unable to fully understand or appreciate.
I don't think the bulk of people who were sceptical of the vaccines, their safety, or other things, were spiteful in any way. It all comes down to how things are explained - easily digestible but thorough so often does not happen. It only takes a few people who are part of the process of getting the information out being a bit disingenuous casting doubt which seeds further conspiracies.
