Before believing videos you see on social media claiming vaccine injury, ask yourself some questions:

1. Is this person aware their video is being used?

2. What is their medical history? Previous diagnoses or conditions? Family history? Drug use?

3. Did they self-diagnose?...
4. What is the timeline of events? Is it possible these symptoms popped up coincidentally around the same time as the vaccine?

5. What biases are they susceptible to? Did they just notice symptoms after the vaccine because it was a drastic change in their life?....
6. Are there other possible causes of symptoms? Genetic conditions, environmental exposure, etc.

The point is, people lie about "vaccine injuries" all the time. Some for nefarious reasons, some because they don't know any better....
Before spreading potential misinformation, think about all these questions above and ask yourself: are you SURE it was the vaccine? Why?
