Maybe. That still suggests a level of knowledge of the bad vaxxes. It is a hard thing to wrap the head around. Knowing about the bad vaxxes, even if he didn't have a hand in those ones as you suggest, still makes him complicit by not stopping it.

The only explanation that somewhat satisfies me is he expects us to use good judgement in not taking it (still don't like that much), or, it isn't as bad as we think and he knows that.
