Not at all, flat earthers are significantly more rare. Flat earth is based on personal observation over science mixed with general conspiratorial thinking and anti-gov' skepticism.

Anti-vaxx is much more a social movement, and is/was aligned heavily with US politic. The vax became a short hand for thoughts about lockdowns and other unrelated things. Like if you got the vax then you agreed Covid was a problem and therefore agree lockdowns should happen (illogical as this is, we get shots for tons of other diseases - the flu most notably- that we do not engage in special social measures for)

Then there's the whole hippy/naturalistic, and medicine skeptic crowds who all have their own motivations
