An image posted on social media claims to show abnormal blood clots that have been removed from the bodies of people vaccinated against COVID-19. The post claims that the vaccines caused an increase in fetal mortality.
Emphasizing that there is no evidence to support these claims is recommended. Despite many anecdotal stories to the contrary, no studies have found a link between COVID-19 vaccines and the “strange” blood clots that vaccine opponents frequently post about on social media. Consider countering misinformation about vaccination during pregnancy by emphasizing the numerous large studies worldwide that show that COVID-19 vaccination is safe during or before pregnancy and does not increase the risk of fetal death.
