Covid
Note that Covid has killed many, to include a few like this guy in WA who hated on Inslee for whatever reason.We all know how much disagreement there has been about COVID and its vaccines in the last two years. While citizens continue to argue, scientists have already put many claims to rest. Yes, I know, it’s as long as this pandemic has been but worth a skim. I have left the links intact for transparency. Have a great day.
Edit: If you feel I’ve missed something, feel free to share and I would gladly update the list!Edit 2: I see some correction requests(appreciated), and a few skeptics. Working, so will do ASAP. In the meantime, please try to use evidence to rebuke or support any claims on this thread. This is my personal list so I don’t mind making it more accurate.Claim: COVID vaccines can not prevent you from becoming infected. [ Origin: Facebook post by The Lion’s Roar. https://archive.ph/nEkcw ]
— This claim was never supported with evidence.
Findings: Recent MMWR using HEROES-RECOVER data (n=4136 over 35 weeks, adjusted for environment and mask use) suggests mRNA vaccines may be up to 90% effective in preventing symptomatic and asymptomatic infections in those with no history of infection.

•Claim: COVID Vaccination causes infertility in childbearing women. [Origin: retired German scientist petitioned for the halt of vaccine trials based on a similarity between the SARS-CoV2 spike protein and syncytin-1. https://2020news.de/en/dr-wodarg-and-dr-yeadon-request-a-stop-of-all-corona-vaccination-studies-and-call-for-co-signing-the-petition/ ]
— This claim was never supported with evidence.
•Findings: Proven false by recent studies, and ongoing trials support this long-term thus far.

•Claim: Certain blood types are more/less susceptible to COVID.
•Findings: Proven mostly false with better studies. There remains a possible relationship between severity and anti-ABO antibodies.

•Claim: Masks don’t work/help at all to protect against COVID.
— This claim was not initially supported with evidence.
•Findings: Many conflicting studies of varying quality. Most studies this far have show great benefit. Although, a large study done in Bangladesh reveals little protective effect. I will be back ASAP to fix this one.

•Claim: Catching COVID provides immunity and negates the need for a vaccine.
— https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.03.13.990226v1
•Findings: This one is a grey area. The original study did not translate well into subsequent laboratory and human studies initially. A review found that reinfection among the unvaccinated was 2.34 times more likely when compared with vaccinated individuals. However, a more recent review in a different population suggests that this may not be the case. This newer review found a significantly reduced risk of reinfection among unvaccinated when compared to those who were vaccinated with no history of infection. Controlling for differences in variant-specific epidemiology was not possible for either of these studies.

•Claim: The mRNA vaccines were developed too quickly, so we don’t know if they’re safe.
— This claim was never supported with evidence.
•Findings: Adverse reaction remains an extremely rare occurrence(11 per million or 0.0011% chance), even with >11 million subjects monitored. The CDC explains how mRNA technology already decades in the making helped to get the vaccine to production quickly.

•Claim: mRNA vaccines will alter your DNA. [Origin(REMOVED): Emerald Robinson on Twitter: “@EmeraldRobinson: 99.97% survival rate. I'll take the chances on my immune system over an experimental DNA altering fast-tracked vaccine” https://mobile.twitter.com/emeraldrobinson/status/1331210415712460802 ]
— This claim was never supported with evidence.
•Findings: Proven false. mRNA does not have the ability to enter the nucleus of any cell to interact with or influence DNA.

•Claim: Covid vaccines contain aborted fetal tissue. [Origin(REMOVED): https://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?v=410961569924049&ref=watch_permalink ]
— This claim was never supported with evidence.
•Findings: As far back as the 1950’s, fetal cells (yes, harvested from an electively aborted fetuses—that’s not a myth nor did I imply it was) were cultured and then underwent several genetic manipulations to allow scientists to replicate viruses(https://www.historyofvaccines.org/content/articles/human-cell-strains-vaccine-development ). The original tissues from these fetuses are long gone. Further, these same fetal cell lines (HEK-293) were used in the development of the following US drugs: Tylenol, Motrin, Aspirin, Alleve, Sudafed, Benadryl, Claritin, Delsym, Mucinex, Tums, Maalox, Colace, Senokot, Pepto-Bismol, Preparation-H & Neosynephrine, Lidocaine, Synthroid, Norvasc, Lipitor, Metoprolol, Prilosec, Losartan, Valsartan, Enbrel, Z-Pak, Hydroxychloroquine, Remdesivir, Ivermectin, Farxiga, Jardiance, Invokana, Metformin, Lisinopril, and more.

•Claim: Spike proteins can damage organs and are toxic to the body. [Origin: Dr. Robert Malone on TikTok: “a viral gene will be injected into your children's cells. This gene forces your child’s body to make toxic spike proteins. These proteins often cause permanent damage in children’s critical organs.” https://archive.is/CbiVs ]
— This claim was never supported with evidence.
•Findings: Evidence offered suggests the spike proteins are expressed on the surface of cells that manufacture them. They are not free-circulating within the body. Edit: More recent data from a smaller study (n=13) using more advanced assays show trace amount of spike protein in plasma, but that clearance was associated with IgG and IgA production.

•Claim: COVID vaccination causes spike protein shedding. [Origin: Blog post from Vaccine Safety Info https://archive.md/IDFUs ]
•Findings: These claims were unsubstantiated, formally challenged by the USDOH, CDC, FDA, NIH, and NIAID, and subsequently removed.
Claim: COVID mRNA vaccines dramatically increase inflammation in the heart endothelium. [ Origin: Dr. Vernon Coleman used a since-corrected abstract to suggest the vaccines are deadly. https://brandnewtube.com/watch/finally-medical-proof-the-covid-jab-is-quot-murder-quot_TWpj5FDYSrjRIsT.html?fbclid=IwAR1IoAp6_ICV9QBAwuFMVsb8JVFZa4zpaC4X6Rj9QhxWpAkvM6tKk4SFyGI ]

Findings: While scientists have yet to conclude the potential mechanism, recent data suggests this event to be extremely rare, and generally transient without lasting complications.
