Dear Editor:

Kudos to Jennifer Fumiko Cahill, Thadeus Greenson and Kimberly Wear for an extremely intelligent and well written editorial ("Across Dueling Realities," July 15) on the vaccine situation.

It's important to remember that when the country encountered a smallpox problem, medical science solved it. When the country encountered a measles problem, medical science solved it. When the country encountered a polio problem, medical science solved it.

Why is the COVID-19 problem different? The answer is because it has become politicized. The MAGAs and the Q-Anons have decided that if the solution is promoted by Democrats then it must be wrong. Amazing. Absolutely no intelligent thinking going on here.

An incredible number of Americans have decided to drink the Kool-Aid of a demented and delusional leader. To add to the incredible situation, they seem to not realize that the greatest con man in our history has had his two shots. Where is the logic here?

It's equally important to remember that Trump lost the election by 7 million votes — 7 million.

If his followers want to endanger themselves and their families, it's sad that there is little that can be done.

Bill Morris, Eureka
