  • Fact Check: COVID-19 Vaccine-Related 'Turbo Cancers' Are NOT Real -- Thus NOT 'Contagious' Or 'Behaving Like A Bioweapon'

    Fact Check

    Are COVID-19 vaccine-related "turbo cancers" real? Are they also "contagious" and "behaving like a bioweapon"? No, that's not true: There is no serious evidence for the claim that COVID vaccines cause "turbo cancers." Cancer is complex and has many causes.
