will improve vaccination rates among people who dont think like you ( or me since I got vaccinated in March despite Fauci).
There is a group of unvaccinated that can be convinced, but that will never happen if you cram it down their throats on the advice of a guy that has zero credibility with them.
This reminds me of the owner of a poorly performing team whose coach has hopelessly lost a segment of his locker room. He is friends with the coach and has emotional attachments that prevent him from doing the right thing and replace the coach. Instead the team keeps on sucking.
As you pointed out , the stakes are much higher here.
Everything else you've tried has failed, how fucking hard is it to try someone else?
If Biden embarrasses Biden even once, you wouldn't think twice about canning him, but leadership credibility among the unvaccinated? No way!
