Again, only the most deluded conspiracy nuts would think the FDA would continue to approve for use any medication that has caused 4k deaths and even recently, with the current data in hand, expand use even for children 12 years of age and up.

Even under EUA for clarity.

Res ipsa loquitur. The deaths are in VAERS (likely vastly underreported). The urging to get the jabs continues.

Yet you brought up cigarettes, margarine, and Thalidomide. Laughable.

They are all things which were urged as healthy, or at worst neutral.

Establishing the examples that just because the powers-that-be lend their imprimatur to something, does not guarantee it is ok in reality.

And, you don’t even know the difference between a medication to treat disease and inoculation to prevent illness caused by a pathogen. Actually, I think you do but prefer to dissemble with nonsense.

Neither one. You are dishonest to the core.

The issue is that in both cases, unwarranted guarantees as to safety and efficacy are being issued publicly.

And worse, you think you’re making a sensical point that Thalidomide which was only approved by the FDA some half a century after worldwide use and then only for non-pregnant women primarily for leprosy is somehow relevant to the EUA and soon full FDA approval of one or all of the current vaccines.

That's odd. Where'd all the Thalidomide babies come from, given that it was available by prescription and not over the counter?

And even more odd, most of your fellow jab-fanatics are twisting themselves into pretzels to forbid the use of Ivermectin. Never mind that it's been so effective and widely used, that its discoverers were awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for it.

This is like shooting fish in a thimble.

In most countries, Thalidomide was sold over the counter. Not in the USA

In the U.S., the FDA refused approval to market thalidomide, saying further studies were needed. This reduced the impact of thalidomide in U.S. patients. The refusal was largely due to pharmacologist Frances Oldham Kelsey who withstood pressure from the Richardson-Merrell Pharmaceuticals Co. She subsequently was given a distinguished service award by President John F. Kennedy.[2] Although thalidomide was not approved for sale in the United States at the time, over 2.5 million tablets had been distributed to over 1,000 physicians during a clinical testing programme. It is estimated that nearly 20,000 patients, several hundred of whom were pregnant women, were given the drug to help alleviate morning sickness or as a sedative, and at least 17 children were consequently born in the United States with thalidomide-associated deformities.

And even more odd, most of your fellow jab-fanatics are twisting themselves into pretzels to forbid the use of Ivermectin.

I don't recall ANYONE on this board advocating for forbidding the use of Ivermectin. Certainly not me. Just another example of your disingenuous.
