Though you are not a woman, (I have seen your oft-posted video of yourself working out), you’re old enough to have been around during the IUD Dalkon Shield debacle.
Let me refresh your memory...From article:
(Emphasis w/CAPS mine.)
In 1971, A.H. Robins Company put an IUD called the Dalkon Shield on the market. It was AGRESSIVELY (and PREMATURELY) MARKETED as a HIGHLY EFFECTIVE, MODERATELY PRICED means of preventing pregnancy. Just 3 YEARS LATER however, it was PULLED from the market because of an ill-designed removal string that funneled bacteria into the uterus because it wasn’t sealed on either end. This facilitated PELIVC INFLAMAMATORY DISEASE, SEPSIS, and eventually INFIRTILITY. MORE than 300,000 LAWSUITS were filed against A.H. Robins, forcing the company to file for bankruptcy.6

The Dalkon Shield was found to cause SEVERE INJURY to a DISPOROPORTIONATELY LARGE PERCENTAGE of women, which eventually led to numerous lawsuits, in which juries AWARDED MILLIONS of dollars in compensatory and punitive DAMAGES.

As the Dalkon Shield was not a drug, it was NOT SUBJECT TO THE EXTENSIVE TESTING required by the FDA. The FDA requested that it be taken off the market, though a formal RECALL was NEVER ISSUED. The A.H. Robins Company stopped selling the device in 1974, and manufacturing ceased in 1976.

Take-Away:
Many of the women who rushed out to get the novel IUD felt liberated and free as it was highly effective; however 3 years later when data confirming side effects emerged, they were not feeling so liberated and free. Note women damaged from this new device were able to sue...
So based on history, the jab-hesitant “flat earthers”(whom you regularly deride on this site) are waiting to see if unforeseen side effects emerge over a reasonable amount of time...Countless examples exist showing it is not always smart to be a an early market adaptor for pharmaceuticals—especially those experimental in nature.
Interesting note:
*CDC thought both the company’s arguments and the plaintiff’s arguments had merit...Hmm CDC
Comparing apples and oranges. The shield stays in there a lon long time. The 1/2 cc of clear liquid injected in me 8 weeks ago has been chewed up by the liver and passed out as urine.
I see a recurring theme here. One poster was harmed by the H1N1 vaccine so now he/she is afraid of all vaccines.
One Dalkon shield created problems, so now anything new comes along is suspect! That is classic flat earther.
