Whenever someone goes on how dangerous vaccines are like yesterday when someone posted a meme on facebook about all the drugs you have to call poison control if you take too many of them I remind them of this. Remember the chemistry saying “the dose makes the poison”. Another favorite of mine is to remind people that o2 is toxic in high doses.
