The strange part is those who are so enthusiastic about the vaccine are so unlikely to trust it to protect them that they demand other air-sharers to take the injections.

Here's a bit of irony:

Workplaces and other organizations (or people) require vaccinations because they're supposed to help the group, not just the individual. Yet many still require masks as well despite vaccination status, so it seems an acknowledgment the vaccines don't help much with preventing transmission. The evidence has shown that protection against infection (and presumably transmission as well) drops significantly after a few weeks of vaccination.

Protection against transmission came only from protection against infection. Once infected, vaccination status was irrelevant for transmissibility. And yet still people lost their jobs, families divided, air travel was out of the question... There will be no trust in the "authorities" the next time there's a novel outbreak.
