@georgetakei I've heard antivaxxers claim that it's actually because we don't have horses leaving waste in the streets anymore.
That's right: their justifications are literally horseshit.
Lets see how this graph changes now with the outbreaks currently happening in areas with little vaccination ... And see how that compares against today's use of horse transport.
They'd probably shift the narrative and claim that dog shit qualifies, too, or something.
And since peeps gladly believe anything that fits their agenda the onus is on you to disprove them, an effort that typically takes time and money. Time so much that when your're done nobody's interested in your results anymore. That's the trick, you know.
@SomeAnoTooter Some of them probably do. The antivaxx movement is primarily associated with the right wing now, but historically it had pretty deep roots in the "alternative medicine" movement, which has a lot of leftist hippie types. There's probably more overlap in antivaxx/pro-renewables than you'd think.
Hell, RFK Jr himself had a solid record as an environmental activist before he decided to reorient his career around spreading preventable diseases.
