Well that's pretty much what I meant. Mask wearing and social distancing is treated in the same way by most people, and some authoritarian gestapo aren't generally bringing the boot down on those who don't wear masks or social distance in a context where it isn't important.
My point isn't necessarily that everyone should have the vaccine, but that being anti-vaccine because you're afraid we're entering George Orwin 1987 Animal Crossing isn't much better than outright conspiracy theory stuff
