Effectiveness of vaccine has nothing to do at all with the politicization of the vaccine. Separating those would be best. Politicians will do whatever they can and say whatever they can to appease their base.. I can understand someone not liking the politicians leaching onto this whole COVID thing, it's tiring. Because it's not a political issue. It's a health/science issue.
I'm not sure what stats you are looking at to say that the effectiveness is "overblown".
I love when someone says something along the lines of, "I'm not a ___________, but".
