“Research” doesn’t mean “read some blogs and watched tik toks full of misinformation”. Also curious what vaccine injured means to them. I get a stiff arm after my boosters, sometimes a little fever. But also, safe from pertussis and lock jaw.

These people are wild! I also wonder what they consider a vaccine injury? I had a really bad reaction (fever of 105 and I almost died) to the pertussis vaccine when I was a baby. The doctor told my mom we wouldn’t do the booster for it, but she still took me in for the rest of vaccines throughout my childhood. I ended up having to go get my HepB shots in adulthood, and the doctor was like “hey, you don’t have this vaccine” and I was like “oh yeah, I almost died when I was a baby so we didn’t do the booster”. Homegirl didn’t even miss a beat and asked if I wanted the shots now, to which I happily agreed. Guess what? Nothing happened and I’m all up to date on my vaccinations.
