Fascinating, can you tell me more about your aversion to Advil? I haven never encountered anyone warning about it until now and would like to know more.

I don't have any aversion to Advil, you're missing the point.

I'm not saying Advil is dangerous, I'm saying people significantly overestimate the risks of vaccines.

If you're concerned about vaccines but not about other common drugs, you're in need of some risk calibration.

The good news is that I am not concerned about the safety and efficacy of vaccinations. I misinterpreted your comment because of the way it was worded. This is because I know some over the counter pain medications, like Tylenol, can be dangerous. So, I assumed there was a risk to Advil that I wasn't aware of and wanted to know more, given your background as a Biochemist.
