Does intelligence = "size of gun barrel," and wisdom = "knowing where to aim"?

Wisdom is drilled out of most high-IQ people (if they possess any naturally) through years of training ('education') that is narrowly-focused on specific pattern recognition (plus the ideological indoctrination that is now rampant). This type of intelligence is useful in various types of technical operations -- flying an airplane, performing actuarial calculations, writing a legal brief, etc. -- but is not always sufficient for the business of living life, as such. I think focusing too much on this type of intelligence leads to a serious weakness in the long term; it produces a class of people who are paradoxically highly-skilled in some narrow discipline, but at the same time, astoundingly naive socially and politically (like your colleague).
the vaccinated people would have a significantly higher IQ.
A lot of low-IQ people also get vaccinated, and there are more of them. So it seems IQ is not the issue here.
