They see stories like Brandy's, they hear testimony from these people and they think, oh, I don't even want to have anything to do with that.
And so they become skeptical
about vaccines themselves.
So when you cover extremism,
and you cover extremist movements, there's a lot of stuff that's very easy to dismiss, right?
Because it's just kind of nonsense, like on the face of it, you know, like racism is nonsense.
Like white supremacy is nonsense.
Like you're able to look at it.
The problem is with the anti-vax movement and the vaccine skepticism movement is that there's kind of a kernel of truth
in a lot of the things that these people believe.
The study of vaccine safety, for example, is a very complex, very nuanced world, and it's not simple, it's not cut and dry.
And so the people who are pushing vaccine skepticism are able to point at the sort of anomalies and the questions in the study of vaccine safety, for example, and that draws people in.
And you have people, you do have people who are impacted by vaccines.
Brandy may be one of them.
And so those stories are able to influence a lot of people.
Now, let's be very clear.
The vast number of people who take vaccines have no problem whatsoever, right?
But as one of our experts says,
The problem with vaccines is that the good that they do is invisible to society.
It's always there.
