Their messaging really sucked and further degraded public confidence in those institutions, but fundamentally what they were trying to do was not make promises about vaccine performance until they had the real-world data to CYA. Bureaucrats can't get in trouble for being conservative , but they can get in trouble for jumping the gun. (it's LEADERS, if you can manage to find one, who make hard decisions and take risks).

Yes, and too many people actually enjoy the hysterical posturing and virtue signalling. Like my neighbor with the air-horn (used to warn off people who violate her covid ADIZ, on the sidewalk or in the grocery store). Although even in my very liberal neighborhood in CA, I'm seeing a lot fewer people outdoors with masks lately.

Anything new on that?
