For all material purposes, the antivaxxers won. Their decades-long goal to seed their lies into the mainstream and get moderates to bothsides a hate campaign on the backs of people grieving unrelated death has been an unbridled success. This will become apparent in the primaries.

For the 4000th time, the anti-vaxxers are winning.

They're winning because liberals stopped pushing back, allowing their ideas to secure a foothold in "credible" mainstream circles, while Musk enlarged their platform and DeSantis built their influence network. https://t.co/lc6vHWuSkv
because people blame long term health effects *from covid* on the vaccine. Until our leaders (and the media!) are honest abt COVID’s long term effects, average ppl will believe anti vaxxers who say strokes, heart attacks, etc are all from the vaxx https://t.co/FyyIaB4uHH

Anyone who has reviewed literature or cared for patients knows that COVID-induced cardiovascular harm VASTLY outweighs the very limited & (mostly) self-limiting vaccine induced harms.

We should continue to study both, but anti-vaxx community doesn't care about data or evidence. https://t.co/yOYgGLrzv5
I feel like a lot of people don't trust the COVID vaccine (mRNA=scary) but are fine with other vaccines, so I don't know if I'd call it a complete victory for the anti-vaxx movement, but some people who weren't anti-vaxx have certainly become anti-vaxx
