This is a discussion topic for the May 2024 Book of the Month, "Neither Safe Nor Effective (2nd Edition): The Evidence Against the COVID Vaccines" by Dr. Colleen Huber.

Does this book change your trust in government agencies when it comes to vaccine approval and promotion?

No, because I am overly critical of everything that is presented as being "for the common good" or "scientific consensus." There are many economic interests behind everything, and the easiest thing is for those who have money to buy politicians and the mainstream media.

For some readers, the book's arguments and evidence may lead to a decreased trust in government agencies responsible for vaccine approval and promotion. They may question the transparency of the regulatory process, the thoroughness of safety assessments, and the accuracy of the information provided to the public.

On the other hand, others may maintain or even strengthen their trust in government agencies, viewing them as reliable sources of information based on established scientific protocols and rigorous evaluation processes. They may interpret the book's claims as outliers or misinterpretations of the available evidence.

Overall, the impact of the book on individuals' trust in government agencies regarding vaccine approval and promotion will likely depend on their existing beliefs, experiences, and willingness to critically evaluate conflicting information. It underscores the importance of transparent communication, robust regulatory oversight, and ongoing monitoring to maintain public trust in vaccination programs.

To begin with, I never trust the government of my country as much, and this book has given more reasons. Also, one of the vaccines in my country has been found to have minor to deadly side effects, proving the point of view of the author, Dr. Colleen Huber.

I'm skeptical of things claimed to be for everyone's benefit or based on what's said to be agreed upon by experts. I think there's often money involved, and those with lots of it can influence politicians and the news.

Of course, I knew that government policies in general are quite deficient, but, just as I thought about it then, allowing this media "race" to get the vaccine regardless of the possible side effects of it on people by the governments around the world was a terrible decision, and, fortunately, for the moment, it has not ended with dire consequences. Therefore, if my opinion of them was already bad, now it is disastrous.

The ideas and supporting data in the book may cause some readers to lose faith in the government organizations in charge of approving and promoting vaccines. They could contest the veracity of the information made available to the public, the regulatory process' transparency, and the comprehensiveness of safety evaluations.

The effectiveness of the vaccine does not determine whether I trust the government or not. If the government is not honest, it will not only be in this but in general. This is more about knowing who to elect for our government than doubting the vaccines. In a government that respects the laws already established to protect the population, vaccines will be safe for most people.

This book made me more skeptical about government agencies' handling of vaccine approval and promotion. It highlights several issues, such as lack of transparency, political influence, and rushed processes, which raised concerns about the reliability and motives behind their decisions. The detailed analysis and critical perspective presented in the book have made me question the trustworthiness of these agencies more than before.

This book might make some people doubt government agencies that approve and promote vaccines. It argues that COVID vaccines are not safe or effective, which could make readers question how trustworthy these agencies are. For those who were already unsure about government health advice, the book could strengthen their doubts. However, people who trust scientific research and the processes that approve vaccines might not be convinced by the book's claims. Whether this book changes someone’s trust in these agencies largely depends on their existing opinions and how they view the arguments in the book compared to established medical consensus.

No, this book alone cannot change My trust in government agencies responsible for vaccine approval and promotion because it represents a viewpoint that is significantly at odds with the established scientific consensus supported by extensive research and data from reputable global health organizations.

The impact this book will have on the individual's trust in the government will majorly depend on their opinion of the government before reading the book. It can either fuel their distrust or not.

Since we are left with no other choice, I believe that we should believe. According to the book, the vaccinations were created with a focus on making a profit for commercial gain. It could be the shadow side of our system, I will say. and that system includes us. Trust in the government organizations in charge of approving vaccines dropped after reading the book.

Honestly, I didn't trust the government that much so this book doesn't change anything for me. In a world where everyone is trying to gain something, you have to take everything with a pinch of salt.

I don't trust our government at all not because of the vaccines but because of the fake promises it gives.. It made me not to trust it more especially the health sector and WHO at large for giving people vaccines that may endanger their lives.
