Have a read of the whole article … fascinating reading … the results and conclusions abstract copied below is no surprise … Dex

Results: In order of magnitude, antivaccination attitudes were highest among those who (a) were high in conspir- atorial thinking, (b) were high in reactance, (c) reported high levels of disgust toward blood and needles, and (d) had strong individualistic/hierarchical worldviews. In contrast, demographic variables (including education) accounted for nonsignificant or trivial levels of variance. Conclusions: These data help identify the “attitude roots” that may motivate and sustain vaccine skepticism. In so doing, they help shed light on why repetition of evidence can be nonproductive, and suggest communication solutions to that problem.Keywords: vaccination, conspiracy beliefs, health communication, attitude roots Supplemental materials: http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/hea0000586.supp

This won’t be popular
I reckon the vaccine hesitant could be halved overnight by an oral pill
I believe a lot of this is bought on by a fear of needles
Of course some are just a pain in the arse that hate being told what to do … even if it’s in their best interest
