To me… it far outweighs that because it's about more than me. It's about really everyone in the world.

Anything that questions the vaccine or the narrative regarding the vaccine … is basically considered under ‘vaccine hesitancy’ by Facebook's algorithms, they're afraid of what people might conclude if they see that other people are having negative side effects. They think that this is going to drive up vaccine hesitancy among the population and they see that as something that they have to combat.

Facebook uses classifiers in their algorithms to determine certain content… they call it ‘vaccine hesitancy.' And without the user's knowledge, they assign a score to these comments that's called the ‘VH Score,' the ‘Vaccine Hesitancy Score,’ and then based on that score will demote or leave the comment alone depending on the content within the comment.

They're trying to control this content before it even makes it onto your page before you even see it.
