Re: The Rise of Vaccine Distrust - UK Edition

I found this report from January 10th:

https://www.statista.com/chart/33749/share-of-respondents-who-do-not-trust-the-mainstream-media/

Polls done late '23 and '24.
US and France lead the way with 20% distrust. Great Britain on 17%, Germany on 15%, China on 9% (!).

Nothing temporal to compare these figures to, but I just have a hunch that when around a third of your population agrees on something it really impacts. Give it a year or two or sooner if some wide ranging big news event hits where too much reporting looks weird to too many.
