Throughout history we can observe countless instances of delayed acceptance of medical discoveries. Even the process of resuscitation through mouth to mouth breathing and chest compressions was initally rejected by the public and discouraged. Anti-Vaccination movements existed long before the Covid-19 pandemic. Ever since the first vaccinations REF people have felt uncomfortable. Shorty before Covid-19 struck, Anti Vaccination supporters have protested against the MMR and Measles vaccines. However, following the announcement of the Covid-19 vaccine, these groups gained more followers and start to spread their views, eventually led to the convoy and the wellington protests.

After 23 days the protesters were forcefully removed by a large police force, 87 protesters were arrested and 50 vehicles towed REF.
The protesting group was a combination of many parties indcluding, anti vaxers, far right conspircay theoriests, hippie youtubers, and disgruntled citizens. They were upset because the government didn't uphold its promise of non-compulsory covid vaccines.
