Coronavirus vaccine conspiracy theories are swirling around social media, putting some people off getting a vaccine against coronavirus. And this #shorts video, the BBC's specialist disinformation reporter Marianna Spring explains what you might want to say to someone should who believes the coronavirus vaccine doesn't work.
Marianna says that while evidence suggests vaccines are safe and effective - some might be hesitant about taking their, particularly because of medical discussions about blood clots or allergic reactions. These fears and worries can be exploited by committed anti-vaccine activists online on social media with ulterior motives.
Marianna suggests having a conversation with an expert or a doctor that you trust, can be the best way of combatting these myths and allowing someone to make an informed decision.
Inaccurate or untrue information about Covid-19 and the pandemic is causing real-world problems because false facts may dissuade people from getting a jab meaning they are at greater risk of contracting Covid-19. It also is hampering efforts to open up some societies because of the risk of transmission.
