I also express little sympathy for people who worry more about the side effects of the Covid vaccine than they do about the negative effects of actual Covid. Because one of those things is an actual serious problem, and the other is a boogeyman used for political purposes.

Supported by data. You know, kind of like the difference between false accusations of rape and ACTUAL RAPE.

So yes, I am more concerned about actual rape. The thing that happens to orders of magnitude more people.
