A German-language post is drawing attention for its sarcastic take on Covid vaccination. The author jokes that they have been 'dead for almost six years' — echoing claims by anti-vaccination campaigners that vaccinated people would die within a few years — and announces they will get another vaccine dose tomorrow, 'preparing to die'. The ironic message is being shared in discussions around vaccines, Covid, flu and public health.
Why now: The sarcastic jab at long-standing anti-vaccine death predictions resonates in ongoing German debates about Covid vaccination.
