I was surprised to discover one genuine anti-vax fact: if you're diabetic and you're taking a certain drug, you must be very careful before taking the COVID vaccine: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26953326

That's not really anti-vax, but an acquaintance died a couple weeks after getting vaccinated due to diabetes complications, and I've always wondered if this was the cause.

I don't think I should post this without pointing out that I'm strongly pro-vax, though. It was just surprising.

It doesn't say that, it says you should stop taking those drugs if you contract Covid, not if you are vaccinated - these are different things

I agree, but the reply to my PSA said otherwise.
