Experts have debunked claims that mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have caused more deaths than saved lives, asserting that the vaccines have actually saved millions of lives. The research paper making these claims has been deemed false and misleading by experts.
Over the past three years, billions of doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered globally, effectively protecting against severe disease and death. Despite this, there are social media posts alleging that the vaccines are doing more harm than good.
One such post on Instagram shared a headline from The Epoch Times, a conservative news outlet, stating that ‘mRNA COVID-19 vaccines caused more deaths than saved: study.’ Another post shared a headline from the Children’s Health Defense, an organization known for spreading vaccine misinformation, calling for a global moratorium on mRNA vaccines and their immediate removal from the childhood schedule.
These claims have been discredited by experts, who emphasize that the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have undergone rigorous testing and monitoring, with public health experts worldwide attesting to their safety and effectiveness. Adverse effects are rare, and the World Health Organization estimated that these vaccines saved over 14.4 million lives globally in 2021 alone.
It is crucial to rely on accurate information and facts when it comes to public health issues, especially in the midst of a global pandemic. Misinformation can have serious consequences, and it is important to trust credible sources and experts in the field.
