Well, education in terms of exposure. "Practical education" to understand the threats and consequences. Just saying "ya gonna die" is too abstract.
You can go to northern Nigeria right now and see people, especially kids, with shriveled legs who got polio because 20 years ago when a conspiracy theory pushed that George W Bush hated Muslims and poisoned the polio vaccinations. Families hid their children when vaccination teams came around. Turns out the polio was the poison all along!
And this is what these people want BACK. Because no one showed them these pictures and said "you will curse your children to be treated like creatures if they even survive."
