no the goalposts that marks the amount of evidence proving safety. no matter how much evidence demonstrating safety somebody who doesn't want to get the vaccine will always demand more and then when they get that more they will demand even more. it's constructing and demanding evidence to fit a preseason idea not adjusting your ideas based on evidence

Exactly. Remember when the goalpost was "Bbbbbut it's not FDA approved!" The exact day that a vaccine became FDA approved, nearly every "hesitant" person suddenly moved the goalpost, so that they had some other excuse to be hesitant. These are not people with legitimate concerns. They already have their minds made up, and plan to keep cherry picking concerns such that they never have to change their minds.
