  • Fact Check: New Colorado Bill Does NOT Expand Abortion Limits -- It Only Codifies The State's Existing Reproductives Rights Including No Gestational Time Limit

    Fact Check

    Did Colorado Gov. Jared Polis sign a bill that legalizes abortion up until the time of birth? Not exactly: Although Polis did sign HB22-1279, also known as the Reproductive Health Equity Act, or RHEA, that bill only codified the state's already existing reproductive rights into Colorado law and prevents state and local interference in reproductive measures such as abortion. Even…

  • Fact Check: Video Does NOT Provide Factual Data About COVID-19 Vaccines

    Fact Check

    Does this video provide factual proof that COVID-19 vaccines interfere with human reproduction, cause cancer and are ineffective? No, that's not true: Peer-reviewed and evidence-based information from qualified scientists has disproved those claims, which are made using faulty data and by reference to anecdotal information that would not pass muster as the basis for consequential public health decision-making, which relies…

  • Fact Check: COVID Vaccines Do NOT Create Spike Protein Buildup In Brain, Lung, Heart, Bone Marrow, Sex Organs

    Fact Check

    Do COVID-19 vaccines cause patients to suffer by triggering them to produce spike proteins throughout the body, including the brain, lung, heart, bone marrow and reproductive organs? No, that's not true: The claim was made without citation to peer-reviewed, independently confirmed research, raw data or checkable specific examples. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has declared the vaccines…

  • Fact Check: There Is NO Evidence COVID Vaccines Damage Children's Brains, Jeopardize Reproduction, Generate Toxins

    Fact Check

    Do COVID-19 vaccines for children fail risk/benefit analysis, permanently damaging children's brains and reproductive systems to prevent a harmless infection? No, that's not true: The claim is made without scientific evidence to support it and in the face of data showing some children are killed and seriously sickened by COVID. Meanwhile, the consensus of published, peer-reviewed and field tested expert…

  • Fact Check: Genetic Engineers Have NOT Created Food That Makes Black People Infertile

    Fact Check

    Have genetic engineers genetically modified food that intentionally will cause black people to become infertile? No, that's not true: According to an FDA spokesperson, "there is no scientific data" backing up this claim. The spokesperson also told Lead Stories that if the Food and Drug Administration had found someone doing this, it would be in violation of the Federal Food,…

  • Fact Check: State Rep DID Propose Requiring Vasectomies For Some 'Inseminators' -- But It's Parody Legislation After Texas Abortion Law

    Fact Check

    Did a Democratic Pennsylvania state representative create a bill that enforces reproductive responsibility for men by requiring vasectomies for some "inseminators" and by offering a $10,000 reward for reporting "scofflaws" who don't submit? Yes, that's true, but an October 2, 2021, memorandum of co-sponsorship sent out by Democratic state Rep. Chris Rabb was extravagantly written, tipping off readers his was…

  • Fact Check: Woman Are NOT Fertile For Only 'Roughly 24 Days A Year'

    Fact Check

    Are women fertile for roughly 24 days a year? No, that's misleading: The fertility window for women is approximately four to seven days a month, totaling 48 to 84 days a year, according to medical experts. Ovulation is usually one to two days a month, which is roughly 24 days but that is not the only time a woman is…

  • Fact Check: University of Miami Study Does NOT Confirm COVID Vaccine Will Affect Sperm Production

    Fact Check

    Does a University of Miami study confirm that COVID-19 vaccines will affect men's production of sperm? No, that's not true: The Miami study looked at sperm counts of men infected and killed by COVID, not those of vaccinated men. The Instagram post also claims vaccines can suppress sperm counts "either by injection or transmission," an illogical expansion of the study's…

    Fact Check

    Has Pfizer instructed male COVID-19 vaccine recipients to refrain from donating sperm, to wear condoms and/or be abstinent for at least 28 days after getting a shot? No, that's not true: A screenshot used as the basis of the claim was taken from a lengthy protocol that was designed at the start of a clinical trial, approved on April 17,…

  • Fact Check: Florida Bill Would NOT Make A Transgender Student Athlete 'Drop Her Pants' To Prove She's A Girl Before Playing On A Florida School Sports Team

    Fact Check

    Would a proposed Florida bill make a transgender student athlete "drop her pants" to prove she's a girl before playing on a Florida school sports team? No, that's not true. Both versions of the bill in Florida (a state House bill and a state Senate version) provide for either genetic testing or testing of a child's endogenously produced testosterone levels…
