DISINFO: The experimental drug known as the COVID-19 “vaccine” could be a man-made biological weapon

SUMMARY

COVID-19 is nothing more than a strong flu syndrome. It is not, as some claim, a man-made biological weapon. It is used as a powerful political and geopolitical weapon to trigger a Third World War. However, the experimental drug known as the COVID-19 “vaccine” could be a man-made biological weapon.

RESPONSE

Recurrent pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about COVID-19 vaccination, aiming to discredit Western vaccines by claiming that such vaccines have serious negative side effects on human health, or could even be a biological weapon. This narrative is consistent with a major pro-Kremlin propaganda campaign in support of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine.

There is no evidence to support the article’s claim that COVID-19 vaccines are a biological weapon: vaccines are safe and effective, and their positive impact in containing the pandemic and protecting against the most severe and deadly effects of the Sars-CoV-2 virus has been demonstrated. Here you can read a well-documented article on pro-Kremlin disinformation aimed at discrediting Western vaccines and especially the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine.

Vaccines are not, as the article claims, “experimental drugs”: they have all been put through standard safety testing before being rolled out to the public. All vaccines authorised for emergency use by the competent bodies (European Medicines Agency, EMA, World Health Organization, WHO) have passed the necessary testing phases and all of the results of the final phase three trials of the authorised vaccines are published. Authorised vaccines in the EU are Comirnaty, Vaxzevria (Astrazeneca), Spikevax (Moderna) and Janssen.

Moreover, the article’s claim that the Covid-19 pandemic is just a “strong flu syndrome” is false and misleadingly denies the grave threat posed by the virus to the health of the world’s population. The SARS-CoV-2 virus has killed millions of people worldwide and is a potential risk for the whole population. Vaccines are currently the most effective weapon of prevention and containment of the pandemic scenario.

Read similar cases claiming that The Pfizer vaccine could be a biological weapon, that vaccines may have led to the beginning of the pandemic and could alter our DNA, and that EMA is still biased against Sputnik V while there are no concerns about side effects of Western vaccines.
