People were skeptical of toilet water but after Not Sure et al demonstrated that it was effective, they embraced it.
We have people who were skeptical of… modern medicine. And when vaccinations were demonstrated to be effective they… shoved horse medicine up their asses and attacked medical workers.
Yeah, at least President Camacho was open to other points of view and was willing to defer to an “expert”, rather than throw a tantrum because someone didn’t immediately compliment and agree with him
In case you are talking about the COVID vaccine, no, that was not demonstrated to be effective, it was claimed to be. Big difference, especially when Pfizer then wanted a moratorium of 70 YEARS to release the full trial data.
Also, even if they were effective, there was no evidence that they were also safe and didn’t cause any long-term side effects, because such a study was impossible to carry out given the speed at which these vaccines were developed. In fact, the usual requirement for these studies to be done before the product could be put on the market were deliberately waived in order to roll them out as quickly as possible.
People were right to be skeptical of this, and they were right to protest being forced to take them. The people who blindly trusted “the science” are, in fact, the Brawndo consumers here.
Always worth pointing out:

We are so far past Idiocracy.

Camacho willingly gave over power to the smartest man on earth once he proved himself. We are no where near that advanced of a society!

I mean, some people are past it… The types that deny sandy hook was real, and that want the guy with orange spray paint on his face to win.
