The anti-vaxxer claims are just that, recycled and repeated. When the small pox vaccines were first discovered in the late 1700’s, the anti-vaxxers claimed the small pox vaccines would change one into a cow. Now they claim that the mRNA vaccines change your dna. They claimed that the small pox vaccines contained contaminates such as bat feces. Now they claim the COVID vaccines contain also sorts of impurities. Nothing new, just the same old arguments/positions in new clothing. Recycle. Repeat.

You need to read the definition of an ‘ad hominem’ attack. An argument that is directed against a person rather than the position they are maintaining. I respond with facts that are directed against positions usually linked to credible sources. I use the term ‘anti-vaxxer’, which is in common usage, to describe positions, not persons.
