1. There are people out there with not enough knowledge who can get correct answers

Who are anti-vax. Lots of nurses who are anti-vax could probably get the answers correct, but that does not mean that they have a thorough understanding. This looks like something, we would have learned in nursing school. We would have crammed for the test, passed it, then on to the next section and mostly forgotten about it. However, there are nurses out there, who find these anti-Covid vaccination articles and start applying them to their limited knowledge of the immune system.

2. Common sense is more important than book learning

Or so I’ve heard from people who have neither.

3. This is just silly

I understand quality research just fine and don't know the answers to these very medical field-specific questions.

4. I think you missed the point.

This is aimed at people who have "done the research" regarding the Covid vaccines, and claim that their "research" supersedes that of actual researchers and experts in the field.

Here's a possible analogy: I claim to have "done the research" on how to fly a private jet, but have no clue when asked which particular panel controls the landing gear. Even so, I insist "my jet, my right" and ask the rest of the world to indulge me as I make my way into the cockpit.

Maybe nothing bad will happen--or maybe I'll crash into an elementary school and kill hundreds of children and staff. But, you know, I should be able to do this, because I've done my own "research."

The fact that you may have a background in aerodynamics, but still can't pass this test, doesn't mean it isn't a valid test for who gets to bash around our airspace.

5. They are playing to the ignorant folks, nobody else.

I really don't get it myself. I can't understand it. It's like flat earthers or people who don't want their children to learn about science.
