I have little empathy for antivaxxers. next to none, actually.

Particularly since being antivax and spreading antivax quackery is in itself a display of a lack of empathy for immunocompromised people.

...at significantly lower rates.

greater vaccination numbers mean lower infection numbers.

which means lower everything else.

And the number of people with adverse reactions will still be far lower than that.

but carry on.

You said all that, but then say that people were terrified and are seeing horrible shit on a scale that they've never conceived of before.

Big problem with that:

You know what we're not seeing on a scale that we've never conceived of before?

Adverse reactions to the vaccine that is slowing the spread of the horrific shit everyone is terrified of.
