The people doing and calling for the banning are hardly trained medical doctors by and large, and I've certainly seen COVID contarians cite heterodox doctors who actually had relevant expertise. They love to cite Robert Malone who while a very controversial figure is certainly more qualified than your average boycotter or moderator or admin to opine on vaccination.

I wouldn't exactly call the claims I see in these communities as being irrefutably robust, or immune to criticism. Still there's enough of the "vaccine hesitant" out there they're going to collectively come up with more robust arguments than appeals to homeopathy.
