Had we seen less mutant mob violence and more of the effects of Jesus-X destroying places of worship then shifting tectonic plates, the increased hatred might be understandable.

They are a living testament that mutants can be heroes, and can save the world, which makes it harder to get people around the idea of just vaccinating mutants away.
I'm really hoping this cure has unexpected side effects.

Ok, correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under impression that Beast CREATED the basis for the vaccine (kind of).
That he was working on some kind of formula - Anole stole it - and GAVE it to the people who used it to create the vaccine from it.
That the reason he freaked out and tried to discover who stole it in the first place - was because he got a sample version of the vaccine from the lab (in issue 2), and after checking it, saw that it was similar to his own work.
Hence his "what have I done" line.
That's what led him to notice that some of his work was missing, and set out to find the theif ?
Did I mis-read that one ?
I know I come across as giving Taylor!Jean a hard time over her lame speeches, but the MU's general populace really, reeeaaalllyyy hating on X-Men Red it's pretty much the only canonical explanation that sorta makes sense at the moment.
Jeansus made her UN speeches, UN representatives patted themselves on the back, 99,99999% of the world's population rolled their eyes at the proceedings, but didn't say anything because they were too scared Jeansus would psychically make them like her and her speeches.
I mean, what else have we got? Repressed IvX resentment towards those Inhumans-harming evil muties? MU folks actually giving a crap about Havok's short-lived stint as a sorta terrorist?
LMAO. I'd rather go for a "opting blasts and green hair for everyone" motif, but Dark-Beast-in-the-becoming turning the whole world into cookie monsters out of spite works kinda awesomely too.

But that doesn't work. Based on what Red told us, for the most part, Jean and her speeches to the UN helped more than they hurt - or at least they were meant to.
I dunno.
This was just a bad event overall and the next six months are probably going to be painful.
"We come into this world alone and we leave the same way. The time we spent in between - time spent alive, sharing, learning together... is all that makes life worth living." - Jean Grey
That's my whole point. Jeansus and the UN thought it helped. Ivory tower and all that.
Painful indeed. If it's any consolation, Scott, Logan, Alex and Jamie will most likely take more physical/emotional abuse than the entire cast of Disassembled put together. There's always that to look forward to, right?
