I have to agree. I side on with the get vaxxed/wear a mask for the greater good. blah blah. But wbradley's approach has actually irked me and turned me off. I've run into a fair bit of extremes on both sides and I hate both equally.

Maybe you don't find all the deaths and hospitalizations alarming but most people I know will gladly roll up their sleeve if it can help.

Even within states that applied. Most of the early supplies of vaccines went to Atlanta metro, Savannah Metro areas. Even just outside the Atlanta metro by 20 miles, it was almost a month after first deliveries that we had enough here just to cover first responders, never mind the general population. So, I'm not surprised at these statistics.

Case and point: I have my Masters of Science in Exercise Physiology, multiple accredited certifications in strength and conditioning, ect ect. I get a client who used to be a personal trainer back in the early 90s and is a physical therapist now. Gives the usual spill about how she knows this and that. Cool I can respect that. But when she insists on doing things that are contraindicated of her conditions or downright silly, I know something's up. I call her out on it, and I get the "You're so smart, but I like this exercise." Refuses to listen, but with patience and figuring out how to convince her, she eventually drops them. Took several weeks because she's stubborn, but worked. Eventually. Point is, you gotta be patient with anyone no matter their intelligence. Demeaning them or being aggressive turns humans away by nature. The exception being brutal change that's palpable to everyone (this COVID is not that).

Weederr I think what you are describing is a professional arrogance, "Yeah I know from courses I took 10 years ago", or just previously misinformed but sensitive in that you don't want to belittle them in any way that you recommend and your peers follow a contrary line of thought. However, these are related professional opinions.
I don't know of any doctors or front line healthcare workers here that are unvaccinated or of any widely disseminated movement of physicians advising against broadly vaccinating all those that can be without significantly high risk. I do what my federal, provincial and municipal government are asking to curb the infections. Most people are so aghast at the statistics that it is just a matter of getting the thumbs up from doctors to go ahead.

If you are advising you friend to get the shot based on real evidence, I would say you are definitely smarter or more qualified than at least the end of his chain of evidence.

I decided long time ago I am getting the vax, I just don't go around telling people why they should or shouldn't unless I hear them say something that is wildly untrue. I will correct that, with ancillary opinions I just move along with my life.

As I tell folks, just don't ask me for my opinion if you don't really want it, because it's the one thing I'm a true expert on and I will give it to you. Whether you agree or not is up to you, because you have the right to be wrong.
