So, thats a loophole, just get it done with the camera's rolling?

In the US much of the vaccine resistance is a result of the news/propaganda channels a particular party (which Greg Abbot belongs to) uses to generate fear and doubt in order to win elections. So they generate the problem, then they get to help show its safe? I mean they aren't going to convince any of the hardcore conspiracy theory people they weren't just injected with saline.

you don't need to convince hardcore opponents, mostly you need to convince undecided people. just like in an election.


The last few elections in the US haven't been won by convincing people. They have been won by getting people who are already convinced to actually vote. That is why the undecided voters portions of most poles were basically 0%.
