Antivaxxers are sometimes violent, often abusive, and always wrong.
A leading antivaxxer is Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Yesterday, he appeared at an "anti-mandate" rally in DC. In recent years, he has invoked the Holocaust, and he did it again this time. (His remarks were inaccurate as well as abhorrent. The Nazis did find Anne Frank, in Amsterdam.)
Exploiting of the tragedy of people who suffered, were humiliated, tortured & murdered by the totalitarian regime of Nazi Germany - including children like Anne Frank - in a debate about vaccines & limitations during global pandemic is a sad symptom of moral & intellectual decay.
