Paul Bramadat asks what the study of religion can contribute to our understanding of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and what do we learn about religion and spirituality by thinking about conspiracy and spirituality ("conspirituality")?

Normally, we distinguish between "cultural" and "religious" forms of vaccine hesitancy, but reflecting on the shared roots of these phenomena raises some questions: from the vantage point of a hesitant individual and community, what sort of world is being imagined as the problem–and the solution? While the COVID-19 pandemic has created much anxiety, "vaccine hesitancy" itself reflects other deeper concerns about personal autonomy as well as the "ambient toxicity" of the world.
