I can't wrap my head around who benefits from astroturfing anti-vax groups so much? Like if ever there are some people on earth who benefit from reduce vacination it has to be a handful. I suppose people who sell fake medicine? Or people who sell real medicine but for preventable diseases (by vaccination).
originally, Wakefield put out his bogus study because he had a patent for a rubella vaccine, and wanted to discredit only the MMR vaccine, so people would buy his vaccine. Once that takes hold people run with it
Hospitals - assume a hospital stay costs a lot more than a vaccine.
Also funeral homes and cemetery owners.
Psyops from hostile nation states. Destabilize.
Russia. Their chief exports are misery and death.
Your healthcare is privatised and predatory in nature, so not just a handful I think
