In an apparent reference to the Covid-19 vaccines, a post on Facebook claims that people are “being Injected by something that couldn’t even make it past the Animal Trials”.
The post does not mention Covid-19 vaccines specifically, and it’s not clear if the post author is referring to a specific vaccine, but all four vaccines approved for use in the UK (Pfizer/BioNTech, Oxford/AstraZeneca, Moderna and Janssen) passed animal trials before being approved.
All four of the vaccines were also tested in large clinical trials and were found to be safe and effective for human use.
Untrue claims that animal testing was not carried out, or that all the animals were killed by vaccines during the trials, have proliferated throughout the vaccine rollout, and we have fact-checked them several times before.
