Exactly! Plus all of the bizarre incentives and then the shaming—just got me feeling very skeptical about it all.

yes! The shaming and the incentives and the mandates...it's like "wow, you guys really want this stuff in us for some reason". A light just went on at that moment. My husband says he thinks the plan was always for the shot to do us some damage and thin the herd, but where the mistake came in was the shot was an utter disaster in terms of stopping the spread of covid. If it had actually done that, the uptake would be far greater. And the trust going forward for future shots would be there - almost everyone would be on board. As it is now, very few people are still lining up for shots. And many families are now skipping the regular vaccine schedule. He thinks they blew their opportunity and they know it. They didn't get enough of us and it's not going to take enough of us out now.

Yup, I agree. I keep saying they’re not as smart as they think they are and we’re not as dumb as they think we are.
