Except not. They are paid for sure... but if they go unused, it becomes problematic to claim that they were the countermeasure that worked.
The people screaming bloody murder/ticking time bomb are really doing a lot of damage.
First, there's not evidence for it and with modern binary politics, that puts them in the group that are knowledgably skeptical, and it lowers the credibility of all non "vaccine"-worshipers
Second, boy who cried wolf... when this doesn't kill everyone, there will be an undeserved trust in the next one that might. Even if there is evidence.
We need to do something about this... I feel like an idiot going to protests and listening to a doctor talk about all the completely adequate reasons why we should be forcibly resisting this and then the next speaker talks out of his rear about how everyone that took the shot is going to drop dead by January.
It's not helping. It's effectively ignorance as controlled opposition.

How would anyone know they went unused? Basically all statistics are a lie at this point. They could squirt the 50% of whatever's left in the trash and no one would know because you would have to take an extremely large polling sample and even then it wouldn't be easy to tell that they weren't used. They could also just issue a blanket statement like due to the large uptake of vaccination combined with natural immunity from those already infected herd immunity was reached. It's an easy cop out that they are completely ignoring. But right now the governments are destroying industries and risking out of control civil disobedience to force it. When it would be much easier to just lie about like they've done literally everything else in this pandemic.
