If you don't influence someone to get vaccinated and they get COVID and die, get long COVID, spread COVID to others and they die, etc., what then? Are you free of responsibility? (Serious question; I don't know.) What about sending literature that supports the safety and efficacy of vaccines, especially to someone who is clearly only believing the misinformation, without suggesting someone get vaccinated, is that influencing them? Of course, one can always influence others to get the vaccine but urge them to talk to their doctor first.
I've continued to urge people to get vaccinated based on the evidence. Are there risks? Of course. But l looked at the data and saw that the benefits significantly outweighed them.
