It's less the details of the covid shot, and more the willingness of the public health authorities to lie and to manipulate policies for their political ends, even if detrimental to health.

Exactly what lies from public health authorities are you talking about?

One prominent example would be Surgeon General Jerome Adams's public comments that masks don't work early on.

(Which apparently stemmed from concern of shortages, but was a seriously bad way to address that.)

		The masks thing is 100% accurate. The CDC and WHO kept insisting Covid was being spread by fomites on surfaces long after it was obvious the virus was airborne. They did this because there was already a mask shortage and whatever other political reasons. It was wrong and it eroded confidence. Personally I'll never put a lot of stock in anything they come out with again w/o getting it verified by other sources I trust who know how to interpret medical literature. The ironic thing is the anti-vaxx wellness community never jumps on the CDC being wrong on masks, because they don't believe in masks either.
