Abstract
Goldenberg is calling for a "meeting of minds": a human encounter between the public health leadership and vaccine hesitators through a respectful engagement that interprets what vaccine hesitators say and do charitably, with an openness to differences in values. At the same time, we are also familiar with the ways in which COVID-19 vaccine hesitators are apparently willing to trust the medical establishment and even the same pharmaceutical companies as produced the vaccine when they become ill from COVID-19. For example, Goldenberg thinks that parental concerns that their child is "too sickly" for the vaccine, and that the vaccine presents a greater risk for them than the disease in a mostly vaccinated society may be legitimate (32-34).
