That’s a pretty low bar. I’m sure @Giltil can find some health official somewhere who (correctly) informed the public that the vaccine is safe and effective, without specifically mentioning that every treatment has some risks. Health officials are not in the habit of treating people like utter blithering idiots who are not already aware of that basic fact.
Although I am starting to think that maybe they should.
For a bit of context, here is a discussion of the message that RFK Jr. has been hammering home about the health benefits of drinking raw milk. I wonder if @Giltil believes he is adequately informing the public about the associated risks.
It appears it may be difficult for people to get the updated mRNA vaccine this year even if they want it and would clearly benefit from it. I find myself in this situation.
