Deniers of evolution sometimes exclaim "That's only a theory!" to imply that paleontological science is false. By that sort of thinking, one could deny the validity of electrical circuit theory, of atomic theory, of quantum mechanical theory, of mathematical theory and so forth simply by choosing '6b' text above as the only valid definition of the word itself.
This is a head-in-the-sand mind set.
Deniers of COVID-19 realities are very much in the same mold. People who are conjuring up their personal equivalents of '6b' such as the vaccine was developed too fast, the vaccine is a secret surveillance tool, the vaccine is intended to sterilize its recipients and so forth are '6b-ing' themselves while exposing themselves and everyone else to increased COVID-19 risks.
Never mind the Ivermectin or the Hydroxychloroquine stories. The only real protections any of us have, even though not 100% guaranteeable, come from vaccinations, masking, distances and proper sanitary habits.
Leave '6b' behind.
