I often go by a place were somebody tagged the wall with something that roughly translates to "Half the vaccinated will die".

So half will not? Ever?

The other half becomes vampires, obviously.

So, the 5G mind controller chips in it do make sense after all.

It’s an easy issue to resolve, really. Just install garlic frequency beams to our 5g towers and boom solved the vampire crisis

Exactly.

Whomever did that tag didn't think enough to notice they're implying that the vaccine gives ethernal life to half those who take it.

(It also neatly illustrates how simplifying one's idea down to a slogan actually increases the chance of ending up implying something else than the idea one wanted to pass)
