The article explores why people express alarm over potential DNA risks from vaccines while largely overlooking the well-documented dangers posed by everyday plastics and pesticides. This selective fear reflects deeper psychological biases that prioritize immediate, visible dangers over chronic, hidden threats. Furthermore, social narratives and identity profoundly shape public perceptions of health risks. By addressing these fascinating psychological dynamics, the article calls for a more rational understanding of real health risks as society navigates complicated issues of trust and safety in public health.
