6. People are learning to shut down the social media of their sick and deceased family members

Or, at the very least, scrubbing them clean of antivaxxer posts and/or setting them to private.

I'm VERY discouraged by some of the very vile things I've seen people post on sites they've seen via sorryantivaxxers and the herman cain awards. I have no sympathy for the plague spreaders but some have innocent children and other family members who don't need the added distress.

The most POWERFUL things I've read have been posted by family members, describing what it's like to watch their loved ones die of Covid-19, hoping to serve as a warning and/or encouragement to get the unvaccinated to wake up.
