even the vaccine crazies have valid skepticism

No, they really don't. To be extremely clear, it is nearly unanimous from every expert that there is no valid reason not to get vaccinated, and lots of very good reasons to do it. That is the consensus of the entire field. Immunologists, virologists, public health officials, in every country. It is as contentious in the medical community as saying the earth is round, not flat among geologists. Which is to say you can probably find a flat earther geologist or two. But they are crackpots.

All this "I believe in it buuuuut does is make people falsely hesitant about something that is the scientific consensus.
