Indoctrination of Vaccine Ideology was Successful on College Campuses https://petermcculloughmd.substack.com/p/indoctrination-of-vaccine-ideology?r=fhnm3#play “For these participants, the perception that unvaccinated people were unsafe and morally defective continued even when, over time, claims from trusted sources - public health officials or medical personalities - began to clash with their experiences (e.g., developing Covid-19 after multiple doses of vaccines). Indeed, for them vaccination status was an indicator of desirable social and moral characteristics, so regardless of these experiences they continued to prefer socializing only with other vaccinated people. In the revealing words of one participant: I admit that personally, I’m still more comfortable around vaccinated people because it also signals something about that person…I trust vaccinated people more to be careful and to be just safer to be around. Because I trust them to be generally more pandemic cautious and to be doing things like masking and distancing and not going to huge super spreader events.”
