Sadly, too many people reject science. They're fine with putting up a wall to stop immigrants (and the wall won't actually stop them) but they're not fine putting up a wall to stop the virus. Walls are only useful for people they consider undesirable.
You're wrong on all counts. The people who are "rejecting" science are not the ones who want to put up a wall to stop people from entering the country illegally. The facts are there along with the statistics but you don't want to believe them because it doesn't fit your overall world view/narrative.

Science, as it happens, is currently falling on its face. The constant shifting of opinions, contradictory information,the back-tracking, the ever-changing directives and mandates, etc. They're making it easy to distrust them, and in turn, write off the vaccines.
