> It’s incredible that we even have to state that. This leaves a bad taste in my mouth, full stop.

How is that bad?

When you go to a car dealer, you know he has an incentive to sell to you.

Is it bad? No, it just is.

It doesn't mean you stop listening to him. You just filter the information to get what you need to make up your own decision.

If you distrust the dealer you can go to another dealer but you can also still work with him and maybe bring your own expert, which is popular practice.

In the end you need to buy a car and you can pretty much assume ALL dealers have the same incentive to sell to you.

You can distrust a car dealer and society will applaud you for doing what's right. If you say you're losing trust in something like an emergency use vaccination, then society will say you're a death cultist.

I wish anti-vaxxers stopped trying to insert themselves into every discussion. It is tiring.

We are talking about procurement of new vaccines and whether this additional shot is actually helping or whether this is due to the fact that Pfizer is going to benefit from this.

What we are not talking about is whether to vaccinate. The case on this is closed and all governments are working towards getting their populations vaccinated because without this they know it would be an either apocalyptic event or forever-dragging crippling restrictions.

I'm not anti-vax. My entire family has all their vaccinations. I'm responding to OP of this thread. I think it's a valid observation.
