  > You're welcome to. However, I'm curious why your question is relevant. I can't articulate a scientific reason that thalidomide caused birth defects, for example. You're admitting that you don't know or understand the science of either COVID-19 vaccines or thalidomide-caused birth defects (really it's going to be for lots of other medical things too let's face it), so why are you questioning only COVID-19 vaccines and not other things? Why aren't you waking up tomorrow and saying smoking doesn't cause cancer? Why aren't you skeptical of that claim too?

    Huh? What makes you think I'm questioning COVID-19 vaccines more than other things? My general approach is to be cautious around putting anything in the body that humans haven't been doing for thousands of years, although to live in the modern world makes that difficult, sometimes mere years has to be enough.

      But you have no ability to be in a position to judge whether one vaccine is better than another if you don't understand the science behind them. I'd recommend doing what your doctor says, if you have one. If not you might want to consider speaking with one about vaccine safety and the safety and risks of things like ibuprofen or cough medicine.
