I know your question was mostly rhetorical, but it primarily started with a heavily flawed paper that was written by Andrew Wakefield. This was then taken up by activist parents, and grew into the anti-vax movement. COVID provided the anti-vax folks with the golden goose, and allowed them to...

I swear, we're rapidly returning to the time when you had to travel not only with your passport, but your immunization record as well. Won't affect me, but I can see some pissed off folks being turned around upon landing for not having it, or not being adequately immunized.

Nothing in this article surprises me. It's just another form of "barefoot and pregnant an in the kitchen".

Agreed, but people just don't know what to say. Some say "Thank you for your service", which is still odd to me, but acceptable. I think something along the lines of "Lest we forget" or "Wishing you a memorable day" are somewhat better.
