Because whether or not it's harmful doesn't even matter when the vaccines don't even move the needle on terms of exposure anyway.
With respect to the vaccine facet at least. If exposure is otherwise harmful, well that's up to other studies to determine.
That's literally how they work
Hah, technically incorrect. Vaccines don't move the needle, vaccines move through the needle as they are moved by the plunger.
The human moves the needle.
The best kind of correct!
The article is all about quantity but not even one bit about if either quantity is, in fact, dangerous at either level. What's the distance between the "safe" amount and the toxic amount? In a lot of cases there is an order of magnitude or two between the safe limit and the lowest level needed for a toxic effect.
I know this is targeted at people that can't science but I feel it left out a "why are you even worried about aluminum in the first place" bit.
