Did scientists prove that 93% of the people who died after being vaccinated for COVID-19 were killed by the vaccine? No, that's not true: The non-peer-reviewed paper by two scientists, Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi and Dr. Arne Burkhardt, provides no proof for its claims and uses a tiny sample size of just 15 people to draw its conclusions. A professional peer…

Do COVID-19 vaccine spike proteins enter cell nuclei, suppress DNA repair, unleash cancer, immunodeficiency, autoimmune disorders or accelerated aging? No, that's not true: The claim was based on a preliminary research report from researchers at two Swedish universities. The study was not peer-reviewed and at least one of the universities in question said it requested that the draft be withdrawn…

Are people vaccinated against COVID-19 "superspreaders," serving as the transmitting vectors for the virus that caused the midsummer 2021 increase in hospitalizations, and did the delta variant and other new forms of the SARS-CoV-2 virus arise in the vaccinated population? No, neither claim is true: The poisons expert who made the claims provided no vaccinology research, virology nor infectious disease…

Do the briefing documents filed in support of Moderna's application for Food and Drug Administration (FDA) permission for its COVID-19 vaccine say it causes death and autoimmune disease? No, that's not true: The FDA had, as of May 26, 2021, documented no cases in which death or autoimmune disease onset that coincided with Moderna vaccination was caused by the vaccine.…

Does a video by an anti-vaccine physician show conclusive scientific evidence that the antibodies produced by the Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccines will cause severe harm and even death if a vaccinated person is exposed to the COVID virus after inoculation? No, it does not: The claims by Dr. Sherri Tenpenny and other vaccine opponents lack rigorous scientific testing to…

Do variants of the MTHFR gene cause disease and increase the likelihood of vaccine reactions? No, that's not true: In rare circumstances, a MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) gene variant causes neural tube defects in newborn babies. Other times, it can cause elevelated levels of homocysteine, which can lead to blood clots. Otherwise, there are no scientific studies linking MTHFR gene variants,…

Did Dr. Anthony Fauci say that hydroxychloroquine was both a cure and a vaccine for coronavirus in 2005? No, that's not true: The National Institutes of Health did publish a study in 2005 that reported hopeful signs from in-vitro tests that chloroquine, not hydroxychloroquine, had potential against SARS-CoV-1, not SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus that is responsible for the current COVID-19…

Is there a "vaccine that's coming" to fight the novel coronavirus that is funded by Bill Gates and could change human genes to the point where a different species is created that could battle, or replace, humans? No, there is no evidence to support this. A video by Dr. Carrie Madej making many claims about vaccines includes "urgent information" about…

Did Dr. Anthony Fauci serve on the board of directors of tech giant Microsoft, and was MIcrosoft co-founder Bill Gates Fauci's boss? No, this is not true. Fauci, one of the leaders on the White House Coronavirus Task Force, never served on the board. Fauci and Gates are linked in that they both support, and have worked together on, vaccines…

Do Big Pharma, Dr. Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates want to ban hydroxychoroquine? No, that's not true: In fact, not only is the drug not banned -- the federal government is actually conducting clinical trials right now to determine if hydroxychloroquine is effective in treating COVID-19. The claim surfaced in an article (archived here) on the website of Carole Hornsby…
