“Massive cases of stroke, people gone blind, miscarriages, dying pets”. People vaccinated against Covid-19 would be dangerous to the health of others. Spreading a rumor, the anitivax believe that the “vaccine excretions” would cause serious illness.
Listening to them, the “vaccine excretions” from vaccinated people would be contagious and very dangerous. This rumor, however denied by scientists, is a fact of life among antivaccines.

“Cases of stroke, of people who have gone blind”
For Sam, an Australian active on Facebook, there are “massive cases of stroke, of people going blind, of miscarriages, of dying pets.”
As for Bryan Ardis, an American chiropractor, he explains that these excretions “will create antibodies which will attack your own cells, attack your DNA”.
“No, vaccine shedding is not possible”
“No, vaccine shedding is not possible.” Dr Paul Offit, a member of the Food and Drug Administration’s vaccine evaluation committee, cannot believe this rumor. “The spike protein is just a protein. It just makes antibodies against the virus. You don’t shed the protein, you don’t shed the antibodies. You just make antibodies on a protein. So it can’t affect anyone. ‘another, because the proteins do not spread.
