Sadly, I have family members who keep track of when they're eligible for their next boosters. :( (And some co-workers - who are quite vocal about that.) It's always interesting how many scream about following the science, but don't want to look at any _other_ scientists who present a different perspective.

Even back before Covid I had a coworker who would try to round up people every year to get flu shots when we had an onsite jab clinic. He'd be pushy and intimidating until I forcefully told him to get lost and never ask me about it again.
Very strange behavior indeed. I don't know if they are germaphobe true believers, or if they just need others to go along to help justify their own decision. But there is certainly a bullying attitude about them. As with most bullies though, they count on people being "polite" in response to get away with it.

When science is (or should be!) all about debate and challenging assumptions and conclusions 😕
That is definitely what science is - debating. What we see now is definitely NOT science.
Exactly!!
