Debunking C19 Vaccination Conspiracy Theories

[Katy]

If you’re interested in scientific & medical explanations of why common conspiracy theories are wrong, this is detailed and long, but understandable even for those who don’t understand statistics.  But possibly irritating if, like mine, your DH works in data and spends the entire video coming to exactly the opposite conclusion for every question solely to tease you. I may want to kick him in the head. 😂

Most of the people who buy into conspiracy theories do so because it makes them feel smarter than all the suckers out there who don't fall for them.  No amount of data will convince them otherwise.

My brother is one . . . . . . He sends me stuff. . . . . . My own fault really - I send him cards on his birthday and Christmas. . . . . .

I can't believe I watched the whole thing 🤣. It was really good! I wish people I know who are so against the vaccine would watch with an open mind but yeah that's not happening ☹️

I didn't watch it, but for those who are pro-vax, it probably makes so much sense!  For those who are anti-vax, they have already separated themselves from reason so much, and have figured out ways to justify their choice, that even logical arguments will not make a difference.  They're okay with cognitive dissonance.

So well-written!

For the casual questioners who haven't gotten it yet, it might make a big difference.  It directly explains the faulty reasoning in all the common memes.

I can see that, and I'd like to watch it!  I'll probably have to spread it out over a couple days.  Thanks for sending!
