COVID flipped the script on who was anti-vax. It was primarily well-educated upper-class white liberal "granolas" - now it's poorly educated MAGA Wal-Mart folks.

I don't think those people stopped being antivax, if anything they feel vindicated.


By the numbers, the upper-class white people were a very small fraction of the anti-vaxxers in the US. The majority were (and still are) Mennonites, Amish, and ultra-conservative Jewish communities.


You should consider thinking of people as precious, rather than these odd fine tuned segregated negative groups seemingly based on skin color, political leanings or social status.
