Quacksinate (quack + vaccinate)

The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic led to vaccines. Some people who were against the vaccines used the terms “quacksinate” (quack + vaccinate) and “quacksination” (quack + vaccination).
 
“Quacksination” was posted on Twitter by Brian Richmond on March 29, 2020. “Quacksination in all forms is toxic, worthless and deadly” was posted on Twitter by Giuseppe Vafanculo on November 22, 2020. “You’ve lost the battle of the Quacks pushing Quacksination” was posted on Twitter by David Oliver on January 3, 2021. “I nominate ‘quacksination’ as an early entry for the word of 2021” was posted on Twitter by Den C a little later on January 3, 2021.
   
“This news is really about vilifying those of us who refuse to be quacksinated” was posted on Twitter by James Hackenbush on May 13, 2021. “I hope the quacksinated start wearing gold stars…” was posted on Twitter by Max Cohen on May 14, 2021. “Nah, they’ll be lining up to quacksinate their kids” was posted on Twitter by Tally Bear #Pigoneer on June 20, 2021.
 
“Quackseen” (quack + vaccine) and “Quackcine” or “quacksine” or “quackxine” or “quackzine” (quack + vaccine) are related terms.

Quacksination in all forms is toxic, worthless and deadly. Avoid at all costs every proposed shot from the Quacksine Criminal Syndicate. No flu shot, no shots for your children, NO SHOTS PERIOD. NATURAL HEALTH IS THE ONLY SANE CHOICE.

Good question. This news is really about vilifying those of us who refuse to be quacksinated.
