Newsweek made a summation article about it:
https://www.newsweek.com/anti-vaccine-covid-trust-skepticism-democrat-politicization-1535559

The article only has Pelosi with this
"Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi, Democratic speaker of the United States House of Representatives, has said any vaccine must meet safety standards before being released if it is to be accepted by the public.
"Unless there is confidence that the vaccine has gone through the clinical trials, and then is approved by the independent scientific advisory committee, as established to do just this, there will be doubts that people will have."

Gavin Newsom's skepticism was talked about in the San Franciso Chronicle.
Please link it, since with Pelosi we see it wasn't a specific naming of Trump

I think they represented a sizable enough influence to antivaxxers in both parties and the public at large at the time. AOC was one of the bigger Democrat voices to push back against that.
The Newsweek article has an anti vaxxer saying that.. but she doesn't offer any proof either. Given most anit vaxxers are conservative, wouldn't' it make sense that she'd try to paint the other side's voices as helping her?

D) Also, this is a very old article (October of last year, before a vaccine was even released). Actual vaccination rates have been much higher among Democrats than Republicans, so... the projected fear didn't occur?
