Claims that COVID vaccines caused over 38,000 deaths misuse VAERS data and lack scientific backing. In reality, confirmed deaths from the vaccines are extremely rare—far fewer than deaths from COVID itself.
Despite claims in a Senate hearing, there’s no evidence COVID vaccines cause miscarriage or infertility. In fact, studies show the vaccine is safe during pregnancy, while COVID infection itself may increase risks.
A Senate hearing reignites false claims about COVID vaccines and heart issues. This post breaks down the facts about myocarditis, strokes, and heart attacks—showing how vaccines protect more than they harm.
There’s no credible evidence linking vaccines to autism—just decades of global research showing they’re safe. Autism’s roots lie in early brain development.
Should kids get COVID boosters? A viral claim says no evidence supports it—but studies show boosters reduce severe illness in children and protect public health.
Are childhood vaccines untested and not evidence-based? RFK Jr. says yes—but decades of placebo-controlled trials and expert reviews prove vaccines are safe and effective.
Do COVID vaccines cause autoimmune problems or fertility issues? Dr. Ryan Cole says yes—but global studies show mRNA vaccines are safe, effective, and life-saving.
Do COVID vaccines grow spike proteins in your heart? A viral claim says yes—but studies show mRNA rarely reaches the heart, and vaccine side effects are rare and mild.
Do vaccines contain RoundUp? A viral video says yes—but flawed testing and basic science say no. There’s no credible evidence glyphosate is in childhood vaccines.
Do COVID vaccines cause miscarriages? A viral claim says 80%—but it misrepresents the data. Studies show miscarriage rates remain normal and vaccines are safe in pregnancy.
