IMO, many in our country have relied on the CDC and FDA for decades to keep us "safe" and promote "effective" treatments and vaccines. They don't understand the corruption. Most normies think these agencies can do no wrong. So with muh Corona, the media and population were clamoring for them to "do something".
So, POTUS made it possible. If he were to come out and talk about the risks of this gene therapy, mRNA, etc.. people would have just called him a crazy conspiracy theorist, "muh science" and trust the experts. "POTUS isn't a DR!"
It wouldn't have mattered one bit if POTUS came out against it.
At this point it's personal responsibility. People need to seek out information on their own. Too many people have gotten complacent and just believe whatever the TV/Pharma tells them. It's unfortunate, but the people have to be shown.
