I don't think the swab fear is like a phobia if sharks. It's Facebook sourced misinformation and people who are unable to evaluate a source. Presumably they weren't very interested in history at school.

Ah okay i thought u gave that example as one of the groups that could perhaps be the reason for missrepresenting data in who reported if they got covid or not in vaccinated vs unvacinated groups. My point was then that both fears are not likely to cause any meaningful change of statistics as they ought to be rather small on a population scale.

I know of someone who is afraid of sharks when on land. Granted this was during an anxiety period but there are all kinds of missplaced fears .) Thankfully those are uncommon and likely wont affect any meaningful statistics.
