"I've never heard any "voices" telling me to get jabbed. Maybe because I don't have a smart phone to transmit the very likely REM dream and other subliminal radio messages I'm pretty sure have been happening covertly for decades in the USA urban areas and overtly via the mass media."
This is a fascinating point. I had assumed that neither I nor my husband had heard any "voices" (neither for, nor against) since we are both prosaically "deaf" in other planes other than in dreams or pathworking. But as a data point towards this hypothesis, I only briefly used smartphones, but had given them up as a bad job long before 2020, and my husband has never touched anything "technical" - cellphone, smartphone, credit card, computer screen, washing machine, cars - all of these mysterious technomagics have simply passed him by, unscathed. So, no smartphones in the house.
