It seems these anti vaccination people don't understand science, and don't know their history e.g. the Bubonic plague that killed about a 1/3 of Europe in the "Dark Ages", or the Spanish flue that killed 25 to 50 million, to small pox, polio, and all the other infectious diseases.

The Covid vaccine was a god send of modern science!

That the MAGA folks rail against vaccines, is the perfect metaphor for how wrong they are!
