Notes -
I did tell him at first that I didn't mean to accuse him of being generally anti-vaxxers, I do think their was some confusion at that point, but then he went on and did drop an anti-vaxxer talking point "And I don't believe vaccine risks are as low as they say they are."
That's the kind of thing anti-vaxxers say!
Elsewhere he says he will just have a chicken pox party instead of getting the vaccine!
Even if it wasn't intended as anti-vax that's another talking point they use and a terrible idea.
Guy is saying he doesn't want to get vaccines and appears to have some basic misunderstanding of facts and to repeat anti vax talking points...... like what do you want?
All the medical stuff is more complicated than anyone wants to tolerate dealing with (like the discussion about the efficacy of a flu vaccine) but people are resistant to both being told they are incorrect by an expert and to actual doing research to understand the considerations, like what do you want?
