The Vaccine and the Cult of Trump

A friend who sells water purification systems to homeowners just got the vaccination, after holding out these many months.  I commended him, and said that, since he goes into other people’s houses, and some of these people must be concerned about COVID transmission, he might want to get a button he could pin to his shirt that reads: ‘I’ve Been Vaccinated.’

He responded that this would turn off about half his prospects, who are Trump supporters, and therefore think the vaccine is an attempt on the  government’s part to control the population.

How sad is this? Almost half the country has joined a cult in which accepting science is against the rules. That’s just terrible.
