EXACTLY! Advice from medicos astounds the sense of reason. Just like some injectable product “stays in the arm.” What?! If your needle has broken a single capillary in its delivery method, your product, no matter how small the dose (but let’s not kid ourselves) has now gained access to the bloodstream. Every injectable since forever. How in the world could medical students who become licensed physicians ever buy such obvious, completely counterintuitive crap as the product “stays in the arm?” Whole lotta people have better 2 + 2 capabilities than most doctors. Stay safe!

When my doctor was trying to convince me to get the vaccine, I brought up one of the reasons being that "it doesn't stay in the injection site." In a rare moment of clarity her response was that "of course it doesn't stay in the injection location."
