    Fact Check

    Does a line graph in a peer-reviewed medical study published by The Lancet show that the oral anti-COVID-19 medication Paxlovid starts working before the patient ingests it? No, that's not true: The lead author of the study told Lead Stories that blue and orange lines on the graph start at zero, which is the origin of the graph's X-axis (horizontal…

  • Fact Check: NO Evidence COVID-19 PCR Tests Are 'Linked To Human Cloning'

    Fact Check

    Are COVID-19 PCR tests "linked to human cloning"? No, that's not true. There is no evidence confirming that human cloning ever occurred. A study cited in a video making the claim never discussed PCR tests used during the pandemic because the study was published years before the world learned about COVID-19. The story originated from an episode of the Stew…

  • Fact Check: COVID-19 Vaccines, PCR Tests Do NOT Make People 'Magnetic'

    Fact Check

    Do COVID-19 vaccines or PCR tests make people "magnetic"? No, that's not true. There is no evidence that either of them can increase what is perceived as "magnetism." But theatrical glue, oily skin or body cream can do the trick of making objects stick to skin without fundamentally altering the properties of the human body, which is not known for…

  • Fact Check: Pfizer Documents Do NOT Show COVID Vaccine Claim Of 95% Efficacy Is 'Completely False,' Do NOT Show Harm To Fetuses

    Fact Check

    Do Pfizer documents prove the COVID-19 vaccine claim of 95% efficacy is "completely false"? No, that's not true. It's also not true that the vaccine hurts fetuses: While the 95% efficacy claim cited in memes on social media is a small exaggeration of actual study results, Pfizer documents submitted for emergency use authorization (EUA) and licensure of the vaccine showed…

  • Fact Check: Public Health Scotland Did NOT Stop Publishing Weekly COVID Data Because 'Fully Vaccinated Are Developing AIDS'

    Fact Check

    Did Public Health Scotland (PHS) stop publishing weekly COVID-19 data to hide that fully vaccinated people are developing AIDS? No, that's not true: The agency said it's because of an "increasing risk of misinterpretation." COVID skeptics and anti-vaccine activists have used PHS numbers out of context to mislead. COVID vaccines boost the ability of our bodies to fight coronavirus. AIDS…

  • Fact Check: CDC Is NOT Collecting DNA Through COVID-19 Test Samples

    Fact Check

    Is the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention collecting DNA through COVID-19 test samples? No, that's not true: The CDC published a tweet on February 16, 2022, that stated that if a person took a COVID nose swab test there was "a 10% chance that it ended up in a lab for genomic sequencing analysis." The following day, February 17,…

  • Fact Check: Johns Hopkins Does NOT Confirm You Can Be Vaccinated With A COVID PCR Test

    Fact Check

    Did Johns Hopkins University confirm you can be vaccinated with a COVID-19 PCR test, even without knowing it? No, that's not true: Johns Hopkins Medicine says details about one of its devices have been "inaccurately used for disinformation purposes," the device "has not been approved for use in humans" and has neither been "tested nor used for vaccine delivery." The…

  • Fact Check: Evidence Does NOT Support Quantum Entanglement Claims By Anti-Vaccine Activist Sherri Tenpenny

    Fact Check

    Did Dr. Sherri Tenpenny make a case that the COVID-19 pandemic, treatments and mitigation efforts are a global government plot to kill people -- a "democide" -- or a plot to transform people into genetically modified "transhumans" who are externally controlled and without God? No, that's not true: The controversial osteopathic medical doctor, marketer and evangelist from Ohio repeated many…

    Fact Check

    Does a report from the German public health agency Robert Koch Institute (RKI) show that 95% of those infected with the omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus are vaccinated? No, that's not true: This calculation is based on incomplete data published in a weekly report by RKI on December 30, 2021, that included vaccination status for only about half the…
