      I’m frustrated with the amount of authors who write statements that sound like facts about the vaccine which they haven’t researched.

      So I was thrilled to hear that the vaccines were effective at blocking severe illness and transmission

      This is incorrect. It reduces the severity but doesn’t stop transmission. Why else would there still be masks required? Ugh..

      The United States suffers from a deficit of imagining the lives of other people. This is true of my side: Vaccinated liberals don’t take much time to calmly hear out the logic of those refusing the shots. But it’s also true of the no-vaxxers, who might reconsider their view if they grasped the far-ranging consequences of their private vaccination decisions. Instead of shaming and hectoring, our focus should be on broadening their circle of care: Your cells might be good enough to protect you, but the shots are better to protect grandpa.

      That line nailed it. We are so quick to dismiss the lives and views of others.
