The key component to join the cult was fear of death.

In the sea of modern atheism (declared or de-facto), fear of death was very very powerful. Some of these who fell to the cult and the vaccine tried to mask their personal fear of death as 'civic concern' or zeal towards weaker members of society, and some believed in 'my mask/my vaccine protects others' for real, but most covidians just feared dying full stop.

It is no coincidence that a lot of the genuine opposition comes from a place of faith.
