Emerging Misinformation Narratives

Reemergence of COVID-19 Vaccine Misinformation Following FDA Booster Approval

In addition to the required back-to-school vaccines for children, health officials are recommending that everyone 6 months of age and older receive the updated COVID-19 vaccines this fall. However, misinformation in online conversations indicate that vaccine hesitancy and misinformation may hinder uptake for some. In the days after the FDA approved the booster vaccines, more than half of posts, articles, comments on articles and videos mentioning the COVID-19 vaccines included terms associated with false claims. Many social media posts recycled debunked narratives that emerged during the initial approval of the COVID-19 vaccines, such as claims that the vaccines contain the SV40 virus, cause “turbo cancer,” were designed to only profit the government and pharmaceutical companies or were approved too quickly to be safe.

Misinformation has also emerged around specific vaccine types. Online discussions leading up to the FDA’s approval reflected some people’s frustration over the delayed approval of Novavax’s non-mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. Some falsely claimed the Novavax COVID-19 vaccine is “over 40% more effective” than other vaccines and that the FDA is “intentionally withholding” it, deepening distrust in the FDA approval process and mRNA vaccines. One post that made this claim had approximately 89,700 views, 3,000 likes, 1,000 reposts, and 50 comments as of August 27th. At the same time, there are also examples of support for the updated boosters. One doctor said, “I’ll get the updated COVID vaccine as soon as it’s available, and I’ll urge my patients to do the same. Getting COVID over and over again is not a great plan.” a post garnering 85,300 views, 3,300 likes, 620 reposts, and 470 comments by August 27th. These examples illustrate that both misinformation and accurate information can circulate on social media and receive comparable levels of engagement.

Recent political statements have further complicated the vaccine discussion. Presidential candidate Donald Trump has pledged to defund schools that mandate COVID-19 vaccines, a move that could exacerbate vaccine hesitancy and negatively impact public health efforts. While Trump previously supported the development and promotion of vaccines, his current stance has raised concerns among health experts about the potential for increased vaccine misinformation and declining vaccination rates. Trump’s rhetoric against vaccine mandates could undermine public trust in vaccination programs and jeopardize progress made in controlling preventable diseases.

  7. My name is Ahmet. I’m a bank staff in a Turkish bank. I’ve been looking for someone who has the same nationality as you. A citizen of your country died in the recent earthquake in Turkey, he had in our bank fixed deposit of $11.5 million.

    My Bank management is yet to know of his death. If my bank executive finds out about his death ,They would use the funds for themselves and get richer and I would like to prevent that from happening only if I get your cooperation, I knew about it because I was his account manager. Last week my bank management held a meeting for the purpose of a bank audit to note the dormant and abandoned deposit accounts. I know this will happen and that’s why I’m looking for a solution to deal with this situation because if my bank discovers his death, they will divert the funds to the board of directors. I don’t want that to happen.

    I request your cooperation to introduce you as the kin/heir of the account as you are of the same nationality as him. There is no risk; the transaction is carried out under a legal agreement that protects you from infringement. I suggest we split the funds, 60/40 and 40 for me.

  15. Hello

    I hope this message finds you well. My name is Mathew Lundgren, and I am a Research Assistant in the Research and Development Department at Newton Laboratories Pro Ltd, a leading biopharmaceutical company based in London, England. I am reaching out to explore a potential partnership opportunity.

    We are currently seeking a reliable business representative in your region to assist us in sourcing essential raw materials used in the production of high-quality antiviral vaccines, cancer treatments, and other life-saving pharmaceutical products. While this may be outside of your primary area of expertise, it offers a unique opportunity to diversify your business interests and generate additional income.

    Our company has been actively searching for a reputable supplier but has yet to establish a direct source.

    However, I have identified a local supplier who offers the necessary materials at a significantly lower cost compared to our previous purchases. This could present a mutually beneficial opportunity for both parties.

    If you are interested in learning more about the profit structure and the specifics of this potential collaboration, please feel free to reach out.

    I would be happy to provide additional details at your convenience.

    Thank you for considering this partnership, and I look forward to your response.
