This the key point about vaccines. We get them to protect ourselves, but we also get them to protect each other.
With herd immunity we protect the immune compromised, unvaccinated, and those whose vaccinations have waned and need a booster.
We are all in this together.
Let’s act like it.

I do *not* want to know how bad it would have been if I’d not gotten any shots.
As such, science communication is now a growth industry. We scientists may be good at innovation, but less so at explaining.
In my experience many medical journalists are very knowledgeable & careful in how they report, but unfortunately many others are not.
Grad school may be a better place to capture the likely career scientists.
Perhaps some recommended electives in the biz school MBA program for STEM grad students? The benefits could be explained during orientation.
In an increasingly complex world, we need expertise more than ever. I wouldn’t fly a plane or perform surgery.
Scientists follow the scientific method for a reason. It leads to the best outcomes over time.
Trust the process.
