Back when I was still using Facebook, so prob more than 10 yrs ago, there were plenty of these idiots back then "questioning" Vit K shots. They could be found on the page for "Natural News", an antivax, conspiracy theory, just general woo peddling echo chamber run by the notorious antivaxxer and grifter, Mike Adams.
Non ironically the people on this page referred to themselves as "woke" and everyone else as "sheeple". It's not far from rejecting vaccines to rejecting any shot. Most of them rejected any modern evidence based medicine. Many rejected germ theory for example.
They were deeply into wellness, and the extreme body purity that demanded. So you can easily see why so many found a very short path from "detox shakes" to "mass deportations now" and white supremacy.
COVID gave these mostly fringe dwellers political power. And here we are, or you are.
Many of these lunatics are behind the so-called MAHA "movement".
Australia has its pockets of antivaxxer communities like Nimbin and Byron Bay, NSW. Unfortunately we're not increasing vaccine uptake anywhere.
Personally, and logically I don't understand why #COVID made people want to have fewer vaccinations. I mean, I do because of politics and conspiracy theories, but there was a non-zero probability no COVID vaccine was developed. We could all still be experiencing periods of (much higher) deaths and disability than we do now. That so many vaccines were, and continue to be developed surely would lead anyone to jump at the chance to get something that in another universe might have never happened.
