I read it again and no, it doesn't. It claims that certain things the author happens to believe in are rejected by the GOP.

I think anybody who claims to represent "the science" or "scientists" already should be mistrusted. It's an anti-science stance. In my opinion, proper science should constantly look for ways to disprove its theories, not the other way round. So saying one should "believe science" is anti-science.

The case for Covid-vaccines simply doesn't seem to be as clear cut as for example the author claims.

Here in Germany they just halted vaccinations with Astra Zeneca, and there is a lot of debate about it. I guess the author of the SciAM article would say the German government is anti-science, too. In reality, there are aspects in favour of vaccination and aspects against it.

I think the anti-science notions people worry about are more about distrust of official proclamations.
