    Trying to put myself in the shoes of a 20 year old it wouldn’t be quite so clear cut. Also as a 20 to 30 year old I might feel slightly aggrieved by how the government has treated me not least if I was a student.

    To compare to Andrew Wakefield is crass and inappropriate - he was a professional spouting advice he knew to be wrong. I was expressing a view and sympathy with the younger generation. Hey ho I guess the heat has made you grumpy today but I don’treally mind 😎
    How the "government has treated me" and the scientific and medical advice regarding vaccines are, and should be regarded by everyone of all ages, as very different things (and if the "yoof" aren't intelligent enough to realise that, tough. You can lead a horse to water etc....). The former can be taken or left, choice is to the individual, the latter is fact and ignored at a person's peril (and that of those they associate with).

    I have followed COVID and the science behind it rigourouay throughout as part of my jobs requires me to. Also have family members and friends who are medics and the science is not perhaps as conclusive on future risks as you seem to believe. At my stage of life it really doesn’t matter but as a 20 year old - especially if I feel badly treated by government and not inclined to believe them - it matters more.

    Just trying to see things from all perspectives ….

    And how many times do I need to say it, believe the science (and as for future risks, try proving a negative), and if you wish to then ignore the government, vaccination is till a no brainer (for everyone), in such circumstances.
