These are great examples and I agree we should not always trust the government or big business.
But in the case of these vaccines--unlike your examples--there is a very clear danger to individuals in not taking the vaccines and wearing masks--a 10-20X increased risk of covid.
The products that you list were also motivated by things other than health, and were not tested the way the vaccines have been.
