Covid vaccine: Fertility and miscarriage claims fact-checked

False and misleading claims that Covid-19 vaccines harm fertility and cause miscarriages are still circulating online, against all the evidence.

Doctors are extremely cautious about what they recommend during pregnancy, so the original advice was to avoid the jab.

But now, so much safety data has become available that this advice has changed and the vaccine is now actively encouraged (as getting Covid itself can put a pregnancy at risk).

We have looked at some of the more persistent claims - and why they are wrong.

We need to save this one off. It won’t age well, I’d bet.

[backwoods-engineer]

I pray you’re right. I want grandchildren.

Bill Gates hasn’t had anything to do with Windows since before Windows 3.11. The last piece of code he wrote himself is the Microsoft Basic in the Radio Shack Model 100 laptop, back in the 80s.

Wowsers the advancements of modern science!! In the old days they had to do years Empirical tightly controlled studies over various demographics. These days they can skimp on all that and instead find some claims on the internet which are false and presto...no need for studies!! Its amazing!

Hey, troll-boi.

Gates PIONEERED the model of allowing viruses to cause problems, then charging for a solution.

Ever hear of a “Service Pack?”

Now think of “Patch Tuesday.”

Now look at the “Booster shot every six months.”

[bobbo666]

Yah, that was my first reaction. The BBC? Really? Isn’t that the Brit version of CNN?
And, the “evaluation” is rife with “not proven” misdirection. Well, c’mon yah twits. You suppress any discussion and censor any Dr.s who try to supply info. Suppressing speech and info is not how science is done. All the evaluation does is reply: “no, it duzzunt!”.

[Celerity]

I would like to see more evidence of this. Every where I’m looking, I’m seeing plenty of pregnancy after the shot.

I am seeing a LOT of women saying their cycles are shutting down, or they are having 2 per month now. This suggests that there is an effect.

Also reports of several men claiming e.d. after taking the illegal, ill- advised, experimental gene therapy That will likely become the law in about 2 weeks.

Interesting…now please be sure to get back with us once the 10 year longitudinal studies have been published and the women and children are healthy and vibrant and there is no long term DNA damage

[aMorePerfectUnion]

There was an article posted a while back, that reported on a study that said the 2nd and 3rd trimesters were less of a problem, but the first had many miscarriages.

I see people posting online all the time.

[CodeToad]

“Fact checked” ALWAYS means a lie is coming.

[Openurmind]

Bill hasn’t personally worked on this new project either. He pays people to do it. But it is his and he owns responsibility for it.

And to what entropy said I would reply:

Bill Gates is so incompetent his OS requires perpetual booster shots that still have not cured the MS disease.

Looks like this situation is going to follow the same game plan.

[Openurmind]

Lol, I was thinking the same thing. And just posted similar here.

[Berlin_Freeper]

This is not my article and you are supposed to share your opinion on this article without attacking me personally.

[Berlin_Freeper]

You don't like BBC, then post InfoWars to me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

New Drugs Found to Cause Side Effects Years After Approval

Almost one-third of new drugs approved by the FDA ended up years later with warnings about unexpected,
sometimes life-threatening side effects.
The results covered all 222 prescription drugs approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration from 2001 through 2010.
The researchers looked at potential problems that cropped up during routine monitoring
that's done once a medicine is on the market.
The 71 flagged drugs included top-sellers for treating depression, arthritis,
infections and blood clots. Safety issues included risks
for serious skin reactions, liver damage, cancer and even death

I don’t consider InfoWars as a primary source.

The link they were referencing is what is important.

August 11, 2021 - CDC says COVID-19 vaccines safe for pregnant, breastfeeding women

[Berlin_Freeper]

"CDC recommends that pregnant people should be vaccinated against COVID-19, based on new evidence about the safety and effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccines," the agency said in updated guidance that echoes the urgent recommendation of leading medical societies. "COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for all people 12 years and older, including people who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to get pregnant now or might become pregnant in the future."

According to the agency, concerns among some people that the messenger RNA vaccines might increase the risk of miscarriage when given early in a pregnancy, are not borne out by the data. Officials say miscarriage rates after the vaccine were similar to the expected rate of miscarriage in any group of pregnant people. The vaccine is also safe later in a pregnancy and while breastfeeding, the agency's new analysis indicates.

Just to be clear: So the CDC says women (well, this "science club" extends it to "men") must receive the experimental chemical treatment no matter what stage of their pregnancy, except if they work at the CDC then it's completely voluntary (... but we'd rather you not because, you know, breakthrough cases, side effects and so forth)
