Not Very Effective

A prominent politician in the US has just died shortly after being fully vaccinated. His illness progressed at a remarkable speed, killing him within weeks. However, no-one lays the connection between his vaccine and his illness. We're told that his illness was due to the virus, and that it would have been worse if he hadn't been vaccinated.

Family and friends are urging people to take the vaccine. They claim that the man's death is proof positive that vaccines are important. The level of denial and doublethink is amazing. They live in a bizarre world where all illnesses are due to the virus and where every outcome, including death, is assumed to be worse in unvaccinated patient.

These people cannot be argued with. No amount of evidence will persuade them. However, there's an undeniable fact that even the most brainwashed will accept. The vaccines aren't very effective.

This statement leaves the ones in denial with the option to stay with the official narrative, and is therefore allowed past their mental barrier. They can claim that the vaccine is better than nothing, even if it isn't perfect.

This is how we chip away the false confidence expressed by those in denial. Present them first with something benign that can be accepted. After a while, the next bit of trivia will also pass their mental shield.

Our personal observation that we know more people ill from the vaccine than ill from the virus will pass, because this too can be countered. The ones in denial can scoff at the assertion. But the assertion will stick, especially if we're known to be honest and upright.

A similar observation will soon pass their mental barrier as well. Hospitals appear to be fuller of sick people now than a year ago. It's almost as if the vaccine is making people ill. This statement can be made once most people know and accept that hospitals really are filling up with sick people.

Then, there's the factual observation that Delta isn't very dangerous. There are studies that prove this to be so. However, people in denial will not accept this, because it contradicts the official narrative about the hospitals being full of people ill from the virus.

Those in denial cannot accept the fact that the virus is relatively harmless without giving up on the idea that the ill in hospitals are all suffering from the virus. This is therefore a statement that will have to wait until denial is sufficiently chipped away to let it pass.

For now, not very effective is the go to phrase that we should use. Everything else can wait for later, when denial is starting to lose its grip on the population.
