No, COVID-19 vaccines don’t cause sterility – Education – Australian Associated Press
The false claim has been circulated alongside several other myths about the virus and immunisations.
The Statement
A Facebook meme shared by an Australian user claims that “becoming sterile is almost a certainty” for those who receive a COVID-19 vaccination.
“Get the COVID Vaccine but remember the following,” reads the January 23 post. It goes on to list 11 points, which includes a claim that vaccines “(have a) 10-15% chance of adverse effects and increase risk of HIV”.
The post finishes by saying, “Congratulations! You’re immunised…against a virus you had 99.9% chance of surviving.”
