  • Fact Check: COVID Vaccine Spike Proteins Are NOT Shedding From Vaccinated To Unvaccinated School Children

    Fact Check

    Are spike proteins from COVID-19 vaccines being shed from vaccinated children and infecting unvaccinated ones? No, that's not true: There is no publicly available evidence the Pfizer mRNA COVID-19 vaccine causes vaccinated persons to cast off excess spike proteins. The vaccines teach the body to make the distinctive spike proteins, which the immune system then attacks, preparing itself to ward…

  • Fact Check: COVID Spike Protein Created in Vaccines Are NOT Proven To Be 'Hijacking' Human Body DNA Repair

    Fact Check

    Has a Swedish university proved that the COVID-19 vaccine creates spike proteins that are "hijacking" the human body's DNA repair and adaptive immune mechanisms? No, that's not true: The claim was based on a paper withdrawn by the authors after the university in question found flaws in the methodology and conclusions. The claim was made in a November 4, 2021,…

    Fact Check

    Does an 11-minute video featuring a Finnish naturopathic doctor talking about Johnson & Johnson vaccines show people are being intentionally infected with the Ebola and Marburg viruses to induce AIDS? No, that's not true: The video includes claims and charges that have already been debunked. These vaccines do not cause infections. They train the immune system to quickly identify, attack…

  • Fact Check: Mayo Clinic-Trained Pathologist Does NOT Explain How COVID Vax 'Spike Proteins' Are 'Killing You'

    Fact Check

    Does a Mayo Clinic-trained pathologist explain how COVID-19 vaccine "spike proteins" are "killing you"? No, that's not true: mRNA COVID vaccines teach the body to make the distinctive spike proteins, which the immune system quickly identifies, attacks and destroys because it recognizes them as not part of the human body, thus preparing itself to ward off COVID if the patient…

  • Fact Check: Pfizer Does NOT Confirm Vaccinated People Can 'Shed' Spike Proteins And Harm The Unvaccinated

    Fact Check

    Does Pfizer "admit" that people given its COVID-19 vaccine "shed" spike proteins and infect unvaccinated people? No, that's not true. The claim is based on the standard clinical study protocol used for a wide range of medicines. There is no publicly available evidence the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines cause vaccinated persons to cast off excess spike proteins. The mRNA vaccines teach…

  • Fact Check: Patent Documents Do NOT 'Expose Medical Devices' In COVID Vaccines, Including Injectable Tracking And Computing System

    Fact Check

    Do patent documents "expose" the existence of microscopic computing, tracking and medical devices in the COVID vaccines made by Moderna and Pfizer? No, that's not true: The patents described are for the lipids used to send mRNA instructions into human cells to train the body to attack the spike protein that distinguishes the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The Food & Drug Administration…

  • Fact Check: Every Peer-Reviewed Study In Existence Does NOT Agree On Superiority Of Natural vs. Vaccine-Induced Immunity

    Fact Check

    Does every peer-reviewed study in existence suggest that being infected with COVID-19 builds stronger immunity to the delta variant than does vaccination? No, that's not true: Conclusions drawn from research into COVID immunity differ, depending on the methods, population tested and other variables. Though infection can yield some degree of immunity, medical professionals emphasize that vaccination cuts the risk of…

    Fact Check

    Are Peter Breggin's claims about COVID-19 vaccine deaths, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine and the SARS-CoV-2 virus all correct? No, that's not true: In describing a conspiracy's bid for global dominion, Breggin misstates the clearly labelled contents of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System database, falsely claims ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine are proven effective against COVID and falsely declares no SARS-CoV virus has been…

  • 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

    Did a self-described microbiologist tell the Dawson Creek, British Columbia, City Council the facts about the Nuremberg Code, adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccines and the degree to which the vaccines revise patients' genetic code?
