My thoughts after reading the Herman Cain Award on reddit.

So many of the anti vaxxers argument about the vaccine is that if it worked, then we wouldn't have covid. Since people with vaccines can still get covid, the vaccine is fake.

So when they get covid, they pray to God for their health. But they died. So why didn't they stop believing in God?

The least negative thing I can say about the deluded anti-vaxxers is that they're confusing personal issues with public health issues. When flu season arrives, the CDC is thrilled if they can lower R, the infection rate, by 40 or 50%. The public health benefits of Covid vaccines that lower R by 80% to 95% (depending on variant) are incontrovertible. So when anti-vaxxers demand a perfect vaccine or none at all they are ignoring the whole public health question. They're also ignoring the relative risks of vaccination vs facing Covid unvaccinated, but that's another debate.
