I feel like the title of this article comes across as Anti-vax but it is genuinely interesting. Amongst all the FUD a group of scientists say down figured out the problem. I love science. Awesome stuff.

That's because people have been trained that anything even slightly contrary to the 'agenda' (regardless of how positive or nefarious you find it to be) is inherently "antivax".
It's been successfully framed with the same culture-war argumentative trappings as "white supremacy" to the point you can't have a conversation about it, in most spheres. There's people who parrot the official talking points and then there's everyone else. Even a robust, scientific position that may have some questions in the details gets painted with the same broad brushes as an Alex Jones types who think the vax is microchipping everyone.
It is anti-vax, regardless of the content, given the vocabulary used in the headline. "jab" is how the anti-vax community disparagingly refers to vaccines.
No, “jab” is en_GB equivalent of “shot” in en_US. It does sound silly, but not as silly as citing its usage as evidence that the BBC is pushing an anti-vax agenda.
