Doctor Debunks Vaccine Conspiracy Theories In 1 Minute Flat And People Love It

In this age of information, it's sometimes baffling to see anti-vaxxers being as adamant as ever. This aversion to modern medicine and vaccines is making some doctors turn to social media in order to spread true and tested information about vaccines. Recently, one NHS doctor did just that.

Ben Janaway, fed up with all the conspiracies and myths about vaccines, went on Twitter to debunk them all. The best part of that is that he managed to do it in 1 minute flat. Scroll down below to see the video.

"Covid vaccine is out, but so are the myths against it," the doctor begins his short video. "In less than a minute, I'm going to bust this down," he says and counts down from 3 before beginning to spit facts.

"Vaccines are made of an inert or dead form of a virus inserted into the body so the body's white blood cells—i.e. its immune system—can develop a natural immune response, so when encountering a wild-type version of a virus, it breaks it down without any symptoms," Ben says. "This breaks the chain of infection and reduces deaths. Millions, in fact."

"The link between vaccines and autism and vaccines and Alzheimer’s has been completely disproven by large-scale studies,” he adds. “There are no dead babies, bits of dead babies, or bits of anything else in a vaccine that is going to harm you. This is all myth," he explains.

Lastly, Ben goes on to explain the actual risks of the vaccine. Of course, they don't involve kids "getting" autism or any other hardcore myths. "The actual risks of vaccines are: there is a risk of anaphylactic shock, which is vanishingly low; a risk of allergic reaction to foodstuffs that can be used (and they will ask before they give it); risk of local tissue damage (well, it is putting a needle in somebody); and a small risk of more general tissue damage, but once again, this is extremely low. You may get a few symptoms which is the body’s immune reaction, but not the virus itself."
