    Fact Check

    Has the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) failed to recommend exercise and healthy eating as health measures during the COVID-19 pandemic?

  • Fact Check: Pentagon Did NOT 'Confirm Majority Dying And In Hospitals Are Vaccinated'

    Fact Check

    Did the Department of Defense "confirm" the majority of those dying and hospitalized with COVID-19 were vaccinated? No, that's not true: The claim is made without any offer of proof. A Pentagon spokesman said the claim is false. There is no public record of a Pentagon statement about hospitalization and death statistics contemporaneous to this claim. The U.S. agency that…

    Fact Check

    Does a 52-page pdf entitled, "The Vaccine Death Report" show how dangerous and deadly COVID-19 vaccines are? No, that's not true: This document contains an international cast of claims that have already been debunked.

  • Fact Check: 'Medical Error' Is NOT Proven To Be The Third Leading Cause Of Death In The United States

    Fact Check

    Is "medical error" the third leading cause of death in the United States? No, that's not proven: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not include "medical error" in the top 10 leading causes of death in the United States. For one thing, given the lack of a precise medical or legal definition for "medical error," it's difficult to…

    Fact Check

    Does Dasani bottled water contain additives that are bad for you, that make it "the worst water bottle ever," such as salt, magnesium sulfate to make your mouth dry and potassium chloride, the same chemical used in a lethal injection to stop the heart?

  • Fact Check: Dr. Rashid Buttar Video Does NOT Let Viewers Hear 'Undercover' W.H.O. Video Offered As Proof Of Vaccine Dangers

    Coronavirus

    Does an anti-vaccine advocate prove his claims of vaccine dangers with "undercover" video of private World Health Organization meetings and does he provide credible citations of scientific research to prove his claims? No, that's not true: The video caption promises "an undercover footage - the media don't want you to see" but delivers less than a quarter-minute -- without audio.…

  • Fact Check: CDC Does NOT 'Admit' More Dead from COVID-19 Vaccine Than Vaccines Over Last 20 Years Combined

    Fact Check

    Did the CDC "admit" that COVID-19 vaccines have killed more Americans than all vaccines since 2001, combined? No, that's not true: the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which monitors vaccine reactions and safety, says the opposite: There have been no documented deaths due to the Pfizer, Moderna and J&J/Janssen vaccines. The article making the claim cites only the false…

    Fact Check

    Is President Biden cutting 90% of red meat from your diet, limiting you to four pounds a year and one burger per month? No, that's not true.

  • Fact Check: Pistachios Are NOT Proven To Be The Most Melatonin-Rich Food Ever Recorded

    Fact Check

    Did scientists find out that pistachios are the most melatonin-rich food ever recorded? No, that's not true: the study in question has only been done once and has questionable methods.
