Correct.
Speaking about old vs young people. The study in the OP did not take into consideration young people (aged <42 years), however, this, albeit smaller, British study from 2021 did, and the results ... are not good! Even after adjusting for age, sex, and ethnicity, study members with a lower baseline cognition score were markedly more likely to be vaccine hesitant!

TL;DR: This study has been replicated in Britain for all ages and sex, and high IQ was once again observed with swift vaccination uptake.

Also, I remember the covid shot programs were being pushed in late spring 2021.... That made no sense because it was the end of cold/flu season.... They could have safely continued the RCT through September, THEN made a choice on whether or not everyone on the planet should be injected for the coming cold/flu season.
The whole thing was fuked, and made no sense.Spoiler alert; you die at the end.

Well yeah didn't exactly need a study to confirm this. Early in the pandemic pretty much every age group saw a sizeable net benefit in reduced hospitalisation/death risk after vaccination. In younger groups this was mostly prevention of hospitalisation which is still significant.
The alpha/delta strains also saw a sizeable reduction in infection rates and spread with vaccination - so if you wanted to get over restrictions, social distancing, travel rules etc. as fast as possible then vaccinating as many people as possible was the most logical path that could be taken. Or even if you just had older relatives and wanted to minimise the risk of passing something on.
All this data was out there and accessible to anyone with the ability to read scientific papers and public health reports and parse some basic information from them, which obviously excludes the low IQ.
Later on this changed with Omicron and both prevention of infection and reduction in serious illness became negligible outside of the at risk groups, so the majority of places stopped recommending routine vaccination/boosters for most of the population - once the data changed, the policy changed to suit.
But early on the data was very clear and pretty much every argument put forward by the anti vax crew was retarded, including them hanging their hats on HCQ and other nonsense - and so it should not surprise anyone that lower IQ individuals (eg Republican troglodytes) would likely be the most strongly opposed.Misc Crypto Crew

Digging through the Swedish study... this figure is absolutely brutal. For example, a vaccination rate of 80% is reached after approximately 50 days in the group with the highest IQ score and after 180 days in the group with the lowest score! They use the Stanine system... which is basically dividing a normal distribution into nine groups each with a width of 0.5 std. A Stanine 5 is 96-104 IQ (Wechsler scale), a Stanine 1 is BELOW 74... and a Stanine of 9 is 126 IQ...

Swedes aren't jaded about their government, and Big Pharma isn't invasive in their politics or lives, so applying the same uptake to the US (where Big Pharma is 70-80% of mass media's TV revenue) is not applicable. Not that it matters, but I got the J&J in April 2021 because I still worked in healthcare at the time. When the CDC took it off recommendation for a couple of weeks I knew it was the shot for me. My contrarian attitude toward the health authorities says a lot about the American mindset with Big Pharma, and isn't uncommon.

That's never been true. Though the initial 2 jabs did prevent a fair amount of deaths in Alpha and Delta waves. Below age 55 differences were not statistically significant for hospitalization or death. There were a lot of lies in North America during that time period that only later were uncovered and out of the news cycle in a day or two.

Not true at all. We were monitoring this stuff extremely rigorously in the UK and the vaccines were showing sizeable net prevention of hospitalisations for younger groups throughout the peak of the pandemic. Later on with Omicron we started to see those numbers decline significantly (eg. a million jabs required to prevent 30 or so hospitalisations, and the number of vaccine adverse events potentially surpassing that) so we stopped recommending them as routine for anyone other than the at risk.
Yes young people were relatively low risk but the idea that there was zero risk and the jabs only started working the day you hit 50 is total fantasy.Misc Crypto Crew

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

I do not know about that but the study in the OP do say that the cognitive impaired / vaccine hesitant individuals are relatively more susceptible to various health risks!
