Anti-vaxxers have finally incurred the wrath of the celebs

At the beginning of the pandemic, we were scared. Then we got lonely, weathering a long, dark, diseased winter. Humanity got a shot of hope in the spring, with the turbo-charged rollout of a life-saving vaccine that's very good at protecting people from coronavirus. But largely thanks to the "pan-dummies" who think Dr. Anthony Fauci is trying to inject them with microchips, Covid-19 is inexplicably worse now than it was a year ago. As maskless, unvaccinated hoards of people keep sharing air and passing the virus around, it'll keep mutating and getting better at evading our antibodies.

There's only one logical way for people who believe in science to feel about all this: angry. Vaccinated folks are wearing masks again and still coming down with the virus — though at least they're not winding up in the ICU. It's largely the unvaccinated who are being hospitalized and dying from COVID-19 these days. Another reason to be mad at anti-vaxxers: they're making it really difficult for doctors to adequately care for other sick patients.
