  • Fact Check: NO Evidence 30 New Zealanders Got COVID-19 Vaccine At Clinic, Then Died

    Fact Check

    Have 30 people in New Zealand, all allegedly given COVID-19 shots at one clinic on the same day, all died since receiving their vaccinations? No, that's not true: A New Zealand Ministry of Health official told Lead Stories that "There is no evidence to support this claim." Also, only four deaths in New Zealand are possibly linked to reactions following…

  • Fact Check: Subsection of UK Report, On Vaccinated COVID Victims Does NOT Prove Vaccines Ineffective

    Fact Check

    Are vaccines proven ineffective by a U.K. report published in February 2023, which found that 92 percent of "deaths involving COVID-19" occurred in fully vaccinated individuals? No, that's not true: Implying causality from a limited set of data leaves out consequential variables such as the ages of the dead, other underlying diseases, and whether booster recommendations had been followed. While…

  • Fact Check: Deaths Reported To VAERS Associated With COVID-19 Vaccinations Do NOT All Come From Five Percent Of Vaccine Batches

    Fact Check

    Do deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) associated with COVID-19 vaccinations all stem from 5% of vaccine batches? No, that's not true: There is no evidence of widespread issues with specific vaccine lots. Also, VAERS data do not establish a causal link between vaccine products and symptoms, making the relationship between the figures inconclusive on their…

  • Fact Check: In UK, Fully Vaccinated ARE 82% Of COVID-19 Deaths, 66% Of Hospitalizations -- But Percentages Don't Tell Full Story

    Fact Check

    Do fully vaccinated people account for 82% of recent COVID-19 deaths and 66% of hospitalizations in the UK? Yes, that's true. The figures are found in the COVID-19 vaccine surveillance report - Week 43 by the UK Health Security Agency published on October 28, 2021. But the numbers don't tell the full story -- the report from which the percentages…

  • Fact Check: Public Health England Data Does NOT Suggest That COVID-19 Vaccines Cause AIDS

    Fact Check

    Does Public Health England (PHE) data suggest that COVID-19 vaccines cause acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)? No, that's not true: The data is misinterpreted, and a spokesperson from the United Kingdom Health Security Agency -- which was one of the organizations that replaced PHE in October 2021 -- confirmed that COVID-19 vaccines do nothing of the sort. The claim appeared in…

  • Fact Check: Cherry-Picked 'Studies' Do NOT Prove COVID Vaccines Don't Work

    Fact Check

    Does a collection of "new studies" on COVID-19 prove vaccines are not working as claimed? No, that's not true: The claim rests on the false premise that vaccine makers and public health officials promised 100% prevention. No responsible scientist made such a promise. Quite the opposite: Medical and public health experts cautioned early in the pandemic that no vaccine against…

  • Fact Check: Preprint Article Withdrawn -- Ottawa Study Had NOT Found Myocarditis In One Of Every 1,000 Vaccinated People

    Fact Check

    Did a study conducted at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute, which was posted as a preprint on medRxiv.org, show the incidence of myocarditis after a COVID-19 vaccination was one in a thousand -- a much higher incidence than other studies had found? The answer is both yes and no. That finding was erroneously reported in the original preprint --…

  • Fact Check: Claim That 80% Of COVID-19 Deaths Occurred Within The Vaccinated Population In Scotland Is Misleading

    Fact Check

    Does an article that makes the claim that 80% of COVID-19 deaths occurred within the vaccinated population in Scotland in August 2021 tell the whole story? No, that's not true: The article is misleading because it leaves out the important fact that Scotland has high vaccination coverage. According to the latest figures, more than 91% of people over the age…
