Sorry but the divisiveness exists al most exclusively in the US because of certain right-wing news outlets.

This is not a "politicized" issue in most of the world, at least judging by which parties actually use available scientific evidence.

Over in my part of the world, the scepticism shown in the US is just a fringe position..

I don't know the relative severity, but many countries have some degree of pushback to lockdowns and vaccines mandates. Australia in particular come to mind. This is beyond just a US thing.

There's a substantial difference between the expected pushback from the minority loud voices in that spectrum seen across the world and the ouright insanity of American governors prohibiting vaccine and mask mandates.
