Another reason the vaccines didn't stop the virus is that not enough people got vaccinated.

Which newspapers? It's easy to take shots at 'the media' (or equivalent).

Well it wasn't virologists or epidemiologists.

Might have included a certain cardiologist on Twitter, but the notion is out there somehow and it didn't come from the scientists who know what they were talking about.

These days, notions come from many places besides journalists. Plus, lumping all journalists together, from the NY Times to the fly-by-night Russian propaganda outfits, makes the term 'news media' meaningless.
