If the COVID-19 vaccine is botched, multiple generations will lose trust in the medical community. The medical would lose their cultural authority and their rhetorical high ground against the anti-vaccine crowd and other health disinformation hucksters. The damage from a loss of trust is difficult to understate.

Modern healthcare may be expensive and advances may be slow, but it generally works and people trust their doctor.
