The quantity matters. And the form. And how one interacts with it. Eat too much NaCl and you will get sick, maybe die. Inject a significant quantity and you will certainly die.

Consider dihydrogen monoxide, for another example.

Not siding with the anti-vaxxers. Just annoys me when blanket statements are made. Also the "I feel" undermines the toon's message.
