They are citing ONS figures of excess deaths as proof the vaccines are killing people. I tried to explain that not being able to get a doctor’s appointment, staying home and getting fat, etc explain the figures (official sources have said it too) but they said it’s “gaslighting” and then said their family doctor wouldn’t get the vaccine.

    I haven’t tried to unbreak anyone because I haven’t known any consiratorial thinkers. But I do listen to the QAA podcast, which studies the effects of conspiratorial thinking and interviews researchers and authors and it’s pretty clear that only the conspiracy nutter can pull themselves out. No amount of logic can turn them around and it’s a form of self-harm to try.
