Got into an argument with someone about trusting the science. I mentioned the shot and said do you mean to trust that? They nodded full in.

I said you mean from the same companies that made Vioxx. Vioxx was made by Merck and they knew during clinical trials that taking it would put you at a higher risk of heart attack. Their control group had high rates of heart attack and still pushed it through. FDA estimates at 55,000 deaths and I've read as high as half a million.

Perhaps they mean trust Pfizer, who made Trovan. They tested it on 200 children, reportedly without parental consent. They gravely injured 181 and killed 11, but yea trust them.

Maybe they mean trust J&J. Lmfao do I need to say more?

Maybe it's someone else like Perdue Pharma. They only produced, promoted, coerced and paid kickbacks on the most addictive painkiller on the market, all the while claiming that it wasn't addictive.

Maybe they mean trust the government. The government, which is inhabited by the biggest pieces of shit this country has to offer.

Nothing screams anti science like using science to get over an illness.
